Interesting that Charles Tandy bought RadioShack in 1963 for only
$300,000. Turned out to be a pretty good investment!

Just MY Opinion..

Actually I don't give a rip if Radio Shack sells ham radios or not. I
would miss the resistors, capacitors, relays and other misc electronic
parts they sell. I hope that stays.

By the way I still have an old original Radio Shack catalog before Tandy
bought them out.
