Radio Shack sells CB radios in the U.S, but, they don't really have any ham
gear to speak of. Go to http://www.radioshack.com and navigate to amateur
radio... transceivers. They list one item, and it's a speaker! Sheesh.

Perhaps in Canada, but everything is the same here in the US. They still
sell CBs and Ham Radios around here, so I doubt I will see their line of
scanners disappearing any time soon... I've heard of this already

happening
across the northern border, but not within the US.

Look for a big sale on the remaining stock of police scanners at the

Shack.
After 30+ years of selling police scanners Radio Shack is getting out of

the
business. This move follows the elimination of the ham radio and CB's

that
Radio Shack used to sell for years. Radio Shack makes more money from

Computer
and Cellular phone sales and the return rate of 30% on police scanners

because
consumers find them too difficult to operate helped Radio Shack make the

move.
