And I bet, no HD Radios either !

I'm no lover of RS and agree that they slowly circling the drain. However,
before people post this crap, you should go to their web site and look
before believing some urban legend web site. If you did, you'd see scanners
and shortwave. Not a lot but they are there.

Umm, no. There are two radio items in the ad; here's what I sent to
the DXLD Yahoo group:

Hi, all!
Got a Thanksgiving sale flyer from Radio Shack yesterday in which
they list their special sale items for that day and the following
weekend. On the Friday/Saturday/Sunday page they list the
analog-tuning AM/FM/SW crank-up radio with flashlight and
cellphone charger #20-238 at $19.99; this one has the RS
name and not Eton on it, and the cosmetics are different from
the Eton models. Regular price is $39.99.

There is also a handheld scanner #20-528 at $99.99 (regular
$169.99); they don't mention what the model # is, not give
any details of the frequency coverage, but they do say it is
"Triple-Trunking" and has 1000 channels.

For what it's worth...
