Hello, I make frequent trips to Radio Shack for components and connectors.Been going to the same store for 15 years.Last week the shelves were getting bare,parts were mixed up in bins that are now 8" off of the floor.Yes, get on your knees radioman."We don't need no stinking parts".The manager,tripping over cases of remote-control toys explained, "Most of the parts will be sold at another store".Oh well. 73,Guy kb3ckw
