  The model looks like a clone of Grundig Ocean-Boy 820.

  This model is identical to the Grundig Ocean Boy 820 the only difference being the colour of the cabinet. Minerva Wien were taken over by Grundig in 1980, and shortly afterwards Grundig started to sell several identical radio models with both a Grundig and Minerva badge. Both the Minerva RS800 and the Grundig Ocean Boy 820 were produced for Grundig in Taiwan possibly by Sangean who made radios for a number of other manufacturers under contract, and also produced many radios under thier own brand name.
