Does anyone else remember patiently waiting for the new Radio Shack catalog to finally be released?

Patiently? RS was one of my favorite hang outs. Till last weekend when I loaned it to the middle child, I’ve had a Optimus STA300 and a pair of Minimus 7 as a desktop system since the early 90’s. They still sound good.

Perhaps a retro smile is in order for some of us on a snowy, East Coast day. Does anyone else remember patiently waiting for the new Radio Shack catalog to finally be released? Many of my friends would dream of owning a pair of Mach One speakers while I had my eyes firmly set on the Realistic DX-160 communications receiver but unfortunately its price was well beyond my means at the time

Be well...

Finally managed to picked up a couple of nice DX-160 receivers 30 plus years later

For me it was Allied Radio and Lafayette catalogs.

Those were great times.
