Because Grundig went bankrupt. The asset strippers got the name and
it was sold on.


Incidentally you do know that although Roberts Radio is an Irish owned
company (Glen Dimplex is the parent), they no longer make radios

even in the days when they were independant, they didn't make everything
sold under the Roberts name. their radios which incorporated cassette
players were 'specially made for Roberts in the Peoples Republic of China'.
