In terms of this post and Radioshack Beaverton Or…Radio Shack much of you most likely believe the store has actually been gone for years after all the company declared insolvency in 2015 and closed most company-owned stores a few years later the key word there is company-owned shops dealership stores that were owned by independent business owners remained open among them took place to be within a half and an hour drive at my area brand-new holland pennsylvania amish country here’s some shots of the beyond the radio shack what i actually enjoyed is how the structure type of looked like an actual shack here’s the within the radio shack it looks exactly as i keep in mind basically any sort of electronic or accessory can think of this shop most likely has the first wall included a bunch of cb radios and antennas the wall behind the counter held batteries and battery chargers as a few of you most likely keep in mind to the right of the counter was a wall with some antennas featuring the infamous antenna i tell people not to buy but they buy it anyhow for those of you who are not familiar with what i consider this design here is a short clip this design it’s junk junk
What happened to RadioShack? Radioshack Beaverton Or
scrap this piece of junk [Music] the model was really installed outside and hooked into a tv set i went through the channels and just as i expected it was not picking up the abc affiliate whtm which transmits on the vhf band this antenna design is understood to not perform well for vhf what’s so ironic lags the buildings were some really good older antenna models despite my criticism of this antenna model i can understand why the owners choose to offer and show it it’s smaller and more customer friendly the average individual does not desire a big antenna on their roofing system regardless of the better performance or in this case getting the harrisburg abc affiliate the next design over had walkie-talkies and some diodes the next style had basically any type of av cable television and adapter you can possibly imagine this used to be my favorite section since i’m likewise a wedding event videographer and lot of times i would go to a wedding event and forget a specific audio cable television needed for the microphone during the ceremony and there ‘d always be a radio shack nearby i could stop at regrettably that’s no longer the case another aisle included merges battery adapters and a lot of wires here’s a wall of transistors and would you believe devices for installing an outside antenna installing brackets amplifiers and even a rotator as i continued down the exact same wall there were video cable televisions and accessories some walkie-talkies phone wires phones themselves and smart device devices including this actually 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 accessories speaker wire ethernet cables computer system cables 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 dirty
