In Reply to: the end of an era possibly on the horizon posted by Green Lantern on January 15, 2015 at 03:59:43:
When they opened the first one in my area in the 60’s, it was a place I looked forward to going when I could get a ride.
They had lifetime tubes which they would replace for free if they failed, tinkering with tube amplifiers, I went through a good number of those tubes. They also used to have a decent selection of other electronic parts but in the last decades, they seemed to have gone away from the parts model and have not had any of the things I had needed.
Rather than continue to emphasize the DIY’r and Ham radio they focused on being in the same market as Best Buy, Mallwort and other massive chains.
