I wondered if you had shortened the name, but I wasn't sure. I don't know all the names of the AMERICAN radio makers let alone all the European makers so I assumed that a Blau company may have existed and my assumption was proved in the post below yours.
It is stuff like this that makes me really annoyed at what cell phones... or more specifically texting has done to our culture and language in that many lazy typists abbreviate or acronymize the the living crap out of things to the point that one can have troubles finding evidence of the language of their writing (and sometimes speech) let alone deciphering the meaning of the message. I assumed that you were well above that and took your writing too literally.
I happen to suck at typing myself, and given that what you mocked was posted the day before my last final exam and my mind was so f'd up I was having troubles sleeping and remaining asleep after getting to sleep (it is hard to sleep when you start having nightmares of tests and studying, and have the elevator like music you use to drown out distractions during the finals get stuck in your head keeping you awake when you need to sleep) it is a miracle that I was together enough to attempt to post something cogent.
