In terms of this post and Radioshack 2-way Audio Switch-box…Radio Shack much of you most likely think the store has been gone for years after all the business filed for bankruptcy in 2015 and closed most company-owned shops a couple of years later on the keyword there is company-owned stores dealer stores that were owned by independent entrepreneur remained open among them took place to be within an hour and a half drive at my place new holland pennsylvania amish country here’s some shots of the beyond the radio shack what i really enjoyed is how the building kind of looked like a real shack here’s the within the radio shack it looks precisely as i remember pretty much any sort of electronic or device can consider this store most likely has the very first wall contained a bunch of cb radios and antennas the wall behind the counter held batteries and battery chargers as some of you most likely remember to the right of the counter was a wall with some antennas including the notorious antenna i inform individuals not to buy however they buy it anyway for those of you who are not familiar with what i consider this design here is a short clip this design it’s scrap junk
What happened to RadioShack? Radioshack 2-way Audio Switch-box
scrap this piece of junk [Music] the model was in fact set up outside and hooked into a television set i went through the channels and just as i expected it was not getting the abc affiliate whtm which broadcasts on the vhf band this antenna design is known to not carry out well for vhf what’s so ironic is behind the structures were some really great older antenna models regardless of my criticism of this antenna model i can understand why the owners decide to offer and show it it’s smaller and more customer friendly the average individual does not want a huge antenna on their roof despite the much better performance or in this case acquiring the harrisburg abc affiliate the next design over had walkie-talkies and some diodes the next style had pretty much any sort of av cable television and adapter possible this utilized to be my favorite area due to the fact that i’m also a wedding videographer and many times i would go to a wedding event and forget a specific audio cable required for the microphone during the ceremony and there ‘d always be a radio shack close-by i could stop at sadly that’s no longer the case another aisle featured fuses battery adapters and a lot of wires here’s a wall of transistors and would you think devices for mounting an outdoor antenna mounting brackets amplifiers and even a rotator as i continued down the very same wall there were video cable televisions and devices some two-way radios phone wires phones themselves and mobile phone accessories including this truly cool bluetooth cassette adapter it can’t be a radio shack without radios take a look at all of them designs in the middle of the shop had vehicle stereo devices speaker wire ethernet cables computer system cable televisions blank media and whoa blank cassette tapes at this radio shack i can literally purchase a cassette deck record onto a blank cassette and if the heads get filthy
