Ace Electronics, 3210 Antoine Dr. Houston, Texas 77092. Phone:713-688-8114

A little on the expensive side in my opinion, but loaded with all sorts of
parts and hardware.

I've been at Madison. I'll be there Tuesday, leaving Tulsa monday morning.
Just looking for neat stuff.

Hey Henry:

I was told last week that in Missouri City is Charlie's Airwaves. He sells
renovated antique radios and he supposedly has some interesting surplus. If
I recall correctly Missouri City is South of Houston on I59, about 15-20
minutes. If I can find a map I will try to find out if this is correct and
post it.

His card I have here says C.B.s, Antennas, Stereos, Microwaves, TVs,
Satellites, RV parts, Accessories.

2547 Cartwright Rd.
Missouri City, Texas
281-499-5214

There is also O&E Electronics on Shephard about 3 blocks south of the North
Loop 610.

713-880-3055

This place is a major mess, but he does have a lot of odds and ends. He has
a large rack of used test gear. Also has a lot of NOS tubes, but a bit
pricey. He has tons of Sam's for sale. They mostly have parts for
repairing old TVs and VCRs, etc. Lots of weird ICs.

Vintage Sounds sells antique radios and phonographs. They are the HVRA
crowd. Lots of interesting pieces, all restored. Also have lots of tubes,
some books, records, very few parts except parts for acoustic phonographs.
They have horns, reproducers, knobs, etc. 713-468-4911. In the Hart
Antique Center on Fondren about 1/4 mile south of Westheimer. On the right
when heading south. Open till 6, 7 days.

The other EPO is right down the road from Vintage Sounds, on Fondren. Just
keep heading south past the elementary school, it is on the left about
another mile. Go through the light at Richmond when heading further south
on Fondren.

The Houston traffic is much easier before 2pm. Happy Hunting, Mark

HK: To get to Missouri City go south on 59 and
exit Texas Hwy 6 (a few miles outside city limit). Turn left on 6 and go a
few miles. This map shows that Cartwright intersects Texas 6 as Road 3345.
Turn left on 3345. If you get to Road 1092 you've gone too far so do a 180
and go back to 3345. You may already know where it is. Good Luck MH

Charlie's Airwaves is over pirced on almost every thing. Nice place to go
and look & repair prices are not that bad. I remeber when the EPO Houston
use to sell alot more surplus stuff that was like 3 years ago. Now the only
surpul stuff they have is some computer stuff batteries power supplys and
generators. I like the epo back in the day not it is just good to go & look
you might find something you need. I am also looking for a good surplus
electronic store within about 50 or so miles of Houston anybody know of any
good ones.

I assume that Madison Electronics in Houston is long gone?
They used to be a great ham dealer with lots of surplus.

I only had time to go to EPO on Fondren. Spent about 30 minutes and didn't
find anything I couldn't live without. I was there a year ago and the main
thing I noticed is that prices have gone up. If this is the case elsewhere,
homebrewers are going to have to dig deep or look elsewhere.
