  1. I saw this at an antique store the other day... a Radio Shack crystal radio kit, with what appears to be a drawing of The Jam on the box. (Definitely looks like Bruce Foxton on bass!) I think I might have had one of these sets, but I don't think mine came in this box!

    Found this video today. My folks got me a similar project toy back in the mid-80s and I used it a lot. THere were some projects I never got around to doing but it was great. Mom and Dad leaned heavy on Radio Shack for toys at times. I need to hunt down a ShackWave one of these days.

  7. Working thru a backlog of projects. This old turntable needed a new belt which arrived and installed no issues. I’m getting no audio. The cartridge coils test open. Safe to assume the cartridge is toast? I think I paid $5 for this years ago at a garage sale and only because it’s Realistic gear which I am overly fond of. #realistic #vintageaudio #radioshack #ElectronicsRepair

    I USA slutade jag handla på #RadioShack ganska snart efter jag flyttade dit i slutet av 80-talet, för de frågade alltid om telefonnummer. Och det var innan vi hade SMS. "No, thank you."

    Synd, för de hade bra grejer.

  19. PROTECTING THE RIGHT TO REPAIR

    The first computer in my house was a Tandy 1000. It was made by RadioShack and it was the coolest thing I had ever seen. Sure, it was not much to look at with its light brown plastic case and monochrome screen. I am pretty sure my calculator from middle school has more processing power. The laptop I am typing on right now is basically a supercomputer when put up against that Tandy, but it […]

    Heh, I remember Service Merchandise, although it wasn't my favorite.
    I think my favorite was BEST, but earlier, Toys'R'Us, because they always had an epic computer section. ;)
    Also, I seem to recall the Dillards in Austin had cool toys and robots and stuff.

    Also, who could forget #RadioShack. 😥

  34. #AmateurRadio #CW #MorseCode #HamRadio

    I learned by listening to the #GordonWest cassette series from #RadioShack. When I took my tests, I think the license I got was called Tech Plus, or something like that.

    I passed the 5wpm test, and they talked me into taking the 13wpm test. Somehow, I passed it, so at least I didn't have to take another code test for a while.

    I never really could do #CW until I got on the air. There was a #Novice portion of #40m, and I hung out there, and it all worked
