Hmmm.

They should take the word "Radio" out of the name of the stores. The store
name should be "Shack." Sounds appropriate to me.

- it looks like amateur radio is now officially dead at Radio Shack

- the company no longer lists any transceivers, and appears to have
dropped its only HT from the on-line catalog

- there are still some accessories for sale, but all seem to be
third-party

- it looks like the sell-off (which began several years ago) is now
complete: no HTs, no mobile VHF/HF units, and no more amateur radios

- but you can get your NASCAR scanner, belt accessories and headphones!
(and a cellphone and satellite TV service)

whoo hoo!

:P
