I'm just on the lookout for new police/fire scanners and have had previous purchases of those from Radio Shack although it's been a few years.
The item I'm looking for repair on is the microphone and auxiliary inputs for a cassette recorder which appears to have a short in it. I'm familiar with Radio Shack and other outlets wanting someone to buy a new product rather than have the older one repaired. However, my experience with cassette recorders is the cassettes recorded on that specific machine doesn't have the same audio quality when played on another or even a new recorder and I have any number of cassettes from that older recorder and I would like to continue to use it for both recording and listening.
As was noted in the reply from Larry, probably calling ahead to the Eaton store is the easiest way to determine if it can provide what I'm looking for.
For the scanner options, there are dealers that carry things not that far from you, and a couple catalog sales options.
For the tape recorder, check who does electronic item repairs, in your area. (Based on your profile, you are in the Cincinnati area, and I would be highly surprised if no shops were in the area.)
