Interesting thought!
Mmm.. my opinion? So like we're talking about coffee cups, ball caps, shirts, maybe even reflective vests.
In today's market, with the price of everything going up, no folks inflation is not over, it might be hard to make a good enough profit margin to make it worth the effort and expense, that's only my opinion.
Then you've got the situation of who's going to buy it. I guess the coffee cup would be good in my shack next to the others. Ball cap I don't know, my favorite is still the National Press P.hotographers Association. Shirts, they're going to be expensive, again got to make a profit.
And the big question is.. who's going to volunteer to operate it?
It seems to me the volunteers are spread pretty thin as it is.
Very interesting suggestion.

Does RadioReference or Broadcastify have t-shirts, hats? If so where do I buy one.
I can envision the 2 top selling items.
“Moderators Suck” caps
“It’s clear who you voted for” tees.
But seriously. Back in the day one of my brothers had a CafePress store. It was pretty much hands-off for him, just collect the money. He was still selling items long after he passed away (much to my surprise).

Bunker Branding does the same plus to do all they handle everything including making designs, but one would probably need some sales volume to make it worth it for them I assume. They usually handle social media influencers merch.

When I posted above maybe they could sell reflective vests I had never seen this other thread where this picture came from before. I was just making a joke.
This was my contribution back then, and I stick by it today. As I said then, correct spelling costs extra.

And yet, no one has contacted me.
What the hell am I going to do with all of them?

I think this one would be a big seller here
There is a guy here in nyc who rides around on his bike in a reflective vest and has a Chinese radio with a 1.5 ft antenna and takes photos and videos of cars in the bike lanes and writes full reports on facebook housing groups.
He once told my coworker that he will use his radio to call the NYPD and we could face 30 years in jail for having a semi with a city permit in the bike lane.
He even went as far to theatrically call someone on his radio to pretend to run our permit.
I believe his name is Moises.
After we told him to take a hike or wait for the cops. He showed me the RR database he printed out for NYC and said he's a radio inspector.
True story. I haven't seen him since 2021.

Too much work for me. We have enough work ahead of us improving the products and services we already provide. 😏
The golden days of radio. Seriously.

Will you carry Thales MBITRs or Harris PRC-152s? How bout antennas the size of a football stadium? I would like to see some good US made mil quality equipment or even Motorola APX line rebranded with "Radio Reference". Just please don't sell any of those double Discones.
I want a FPP Clean Cab Spectra.
Love it, I would like to place my quick and simple order for a Harris Falcon III dual-VCO portable with the programming software .
