Ok another one of my fines has me stumped. I found a gilligan's island radio at a thrift store for like 5$ i bought it, but it is an aiwa and has a chrome handle, now this is identical to the one shown on the tv show, except for the name and handle, the model number is even identical. I can't find any info on the net about the radio I bought. I was wonder is it possible the radio on the show was actually an aiwa not a packard bell, that the name was changed to make it sound more american or to not infringe on copyright laws? they added a handle and antenna, is it possible they changed the name too? I am really curious about this.
