In terms of this post and Tec-tronic Systems Inc – Radioshack Dealer Wharton, Tx…Radio Shack a lot of you most likely think the store has actually been gone for years after all the company declared bankruptcy in 2015 and closed most company-owned stores a few years later the key word there is company-owned stores dealership stores that were owned by independent business owners remained open among them took place to be within an hour and a half drive at my area brand-new holland pennsylvania amish country here’s some shots of the beyond the radio shack what i really enjoyed is how the structure kind of resembled a real shack here’s the within the radio shack it looks exactly as i remember pretty much any kind of electronic or accessory can think of this shop most likely has the very first wall consisted of 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 infamous antenna i inform individuals not to buy however they buy it anyway for those of you who are not knowledgeable about what i think about this design here is a short clip this design it’s junk junk

scrap this piece of junk [Music] the model was actually installed outdoors and hooked into a television set i went through the channels and just as i anticipated it was not getting the abc affiliate whtm which broadcasts on the vhf band this antenna design is understood to not perform well for vhf what’s so paradoxical is behind the buildings were some actually great older antenna designs in spite of my criticism of this antenna design i can understand why the owners choose to offer and display it it’s smaller sized and more consumer friendly the typical person doesn’t desire a big antenna on their roofing system in spite of the better efficiency or in this case acquiring the harrisburg abc affiliate the next style over had walkie-talkies and some diodes the next style had pretty much any kind of av cable television and adapter imaginable this used to be my preferred area since i’m also a wedding videographer and often times i would go to a wedding and forget a particular audio cable television needed for the microphone throughout the ceremony and there ‘d constantly be a radio shack neighboring i might stop at sadly that’s no longer the case another aisle included fuses battery connectors and a lot of wires here’s a wall of transistors and would you believe accessories for mounting an outdoor antenna installing 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 smart device accessories 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 store had car stereo devices speaker wire ethernet cables computer system cables blank media and whoa blank cassette tapes at this radio shack i can actually purchase a cassette deck record onto a blank cassette and if the heads get filthy
