[ARRL-OK] [OKDXA] Radio Shack Closings In Oklahoma

To the best of my knowledge, Radio Shack has merely declared bankruptcy!  That does NOT mean total close down. 
 
As is common in such cases, protection is offered to the company while it attempts to reorganize, cut expenses, and come back in a stronger financial condition. 
 
If, has Tom has stated, Radio Shack has some 4,000 stores, the scheduled shutdown of 1,784 of those stores would tend to suggest that the above paragraph is in play here.
