Heh. When Ham Radio Outlet has the gre 500 for $20 less, it's hard to get excited about a 106 for $379. Of course, if you don't live near an HRO and don't want to wait for shipping, $379 is better than the non-sale price of a 106.
RS sale
Not only that but the PRO-163, PRO-164, PRO-197 & PRO-106 are all OUT OF STOCK for online purchases. That means you have to search out a store that has stock. I didn't find any in my area.

One Truck driver I made friends with at work does runs almost every week right by the Delaware location. I should tell him to grab a few while he can.

I'm in the process of purchasing a portable scanner from radio shack and wondering if anyone has any reccomendation's on a good one to buy?I'm in McLean County and we went digital with starcom 21...any suggestion's on a good portable scanner?
If you subtract the scanners that are out of stock online, you don't have many left. Radio Shack doesn't seem to have many RADIOS anymore. And online sales are where it's at these days. Maybe it's time to change the name to Phone Shack.
Radio Shack is working on a business model that was perfect for the 1970s.
You are a bit late with this thread. The sale has been in progress for a few days.

There are only two good reasons RS would run another sale:
1) The company is having severe trouble (no surprise, given their low stock price)
2) GRE is out of business and RS does not want to confirm it until they get rid of all their scanner inventory.

I picked up the BCD396XT here in Vegas while on vacation. They didn't have the BCD996XT in stock so I when to AES and got that one. The family comes for the fun, I come for airplanes and radios. :lol:

Non-stop excitement. It is far better than the radio shack sale guy said. Lots of EMS and other strip traffic.
