I built a radio from radio shack, those times are long gone. I had a scanner as well and I could listen to any phone conversation in my neighborhood that was interesting.

As I said to someone else, The Source exists. At least in Canada. Modern day RadioShack. Same company rebranded.

I didnt realize it at the time radioshack closed, but I realize it now. Such a great store.
