Thanks guys, so here is the back story...

Two years ago, at the first UK meet I attended I saw this little guy on the table.

I asked Hisrudeness about it, he told me he had a second one if I was interested :w00t:

Fast forward to this years UK meet a few weeks back....and Hisrudeness brought his spare to the meet. It needed a little love, which it got from the professionals in attendance.

It was wrapped safely and became my carry on luggage. Two train stations and two airports later, it made it home. Not without holding up the x-ray scanner in London and me having to explain that it's a small UFO radio from the 80's :blink: .

From there it when into full movie production! 60+ hours later, we have the short film you see here.

Anyway, thank you to Rory (Hisrudeness), DOCS, T-Ster and Nick for helping me get it all working and ready for it's film debut.

Episode 2? :hmmm:

That was fun. None of my stuff (or former stuff) have made it onto the big screen before. A classic overachiever.

The Spacetech radio was a quirky little thing I sought out a few years ago, I found one then another new in box with instructions.
They look small in photos but are actually the size of a medium dinner plate in circumference.

Great video Chris and glad you like it.

Glad you enjoyed the vid brother and thank you for bringing this little radio into my collection. I have found that with my FM transmitter going, and when it has a chance to pick up a good radio single, it sounds pretty good. Ni M90, but usable on a table top.

I would love to have one I would use it all the time.
It's fun.....I will get a picture of it next to another radio so you can judge size

I just think it's hella cool.
I know it's not going to blast you out of the room but still it's a cool litle radio to have keeping you company.

Wow the full feature is fantastic, it's like a director's cut :-) I wonder how long did it take to produce it. It's almost 7 minutes long, so you must have spent days on it! Great soundtrack btw...

Yeah, there is 60-70 hours in it. Very time consuming, but fun to make.
