I told Ken when we got home that "maybe hoping to see a variety of
radios" at RS was a bit too much to ask......<sigh>

QED...your own reason for being there was for computer stuff, not radio
stuff... 
Reminds me of Willie Sutton -- they asked him why he robbed banks, and
he said, "because that's where the money is..."

Hubby and I were in Radio Shack today to get some stuff for his
computer. It was appalling the lack of radio and scanner equipment they
had. There were 2 or 3 scanners out and 3 shortwave radios (surprised to
see a Grundig portable displayed.) 
We were leaving the store and I told Ken I "remember the good old days
when you had a choice at RatShack"....now it is more about computers,
cell phones and DirecTV than the radio hobby anymore.
