This was totally going to be a SilentSunday post, but this gets to have words attached.
After seeing that the last open store in this shopping center is closing in a couple weeks, I knew I had to finally go take a photo of this relic of the past before it was torn down.
While taking a couple shots, an older lady came walking up to me from the one open store, and started talking to me about the past, architecture, and photography. We spent 15 minutes just chatting, and she dropped the names of some of the local photography groups that I should check out.
Despite being closed for a decade, this store managed to make one last connection happen.

Why RadioShack's Collapse Started With One Lost Feeling

“The 80s Called” RadioShack’s 2014 Super Bowl spot “brought out icons like Hulk Hogan, ALF, and Chucky, storming a dusty old store to reclaim their era, all set to Loverboy’s “Working for the Weekend.”

@K3LOE Good news: The RadioShack cable survived being time warped into 2026 and is uncoiled, reasonable pliable, and passing continuity checks. Thinking this will also work as a 3.5mm audio output cable on my Yaesu and Anytone HT’s. Marked Tip and Ring on the RCA jacks for future use. #RadioShack #HomeLab #TestEquipment #AudioOutCable #NoVideoToday

Du startest WSJT-X oder dein Logbuch und nichts passiert? Keine Frequenzübertragung, kein PTT – absolute Funkstille.

🛑 Dass wir heute fast jedes moderne Funkgerät nahtlos mit unserem PC steuern können, verdanken wir einer Software im Hintergrund: Hamlib.

Nach über 25 Jahren unermüdlicher Arbeit wurde das Team rund um NØNB, N3GB, IU5HKX und OH3BHX nun völlig zurecht mit dem Amateur Radio Software Award (ARSA) 2026 ausgezeichnet.

Ob CAT-Schnittstelle, USB oder Wi-Fi – Hamlib ist das unsichtbare Rückgrat unserer digitalen Kommunikation. Während wir die aktuelle Stabilität feiern, werfen wir bereits einen Blick in die Zukunft: Die Arbeiten an Hamlib 5 laufen bereits auf Hochtouren! 🚀

Ein riesiges Dankeschön an die Entwickler für ihren Beitrag zur Freiheit und Offenheit im Funkwesen. Ohne euch wäre unser Hobby nur halb so smart.

Welche Software nutzt du am häufigsten über Hamlib?

Schreib es uns in die Kommentare und teile diesen Beitrag, um die Arbeit der Entwickler zu ehren! 👇

I learned by listening to the #GordonWest cassette series from #RadioShack. When I took my tests, I think the license I got was called Tech Plus, or something like that.

I passed the 5wpm test, and they talked me into taking the 13wpm test. Somehow, I passed it, so at least I didn't have to take another code test for a while.

I never really could do #CW until I got on the air. There was a #Novice portion of #40m, and I hung out there, and it all worked

Blast from the past: Was gifted this treasure from a relative that knew I appreciated such things. As it turns out, I was (casually) looking for this exact breakout cable to connect to/from my Digilent AD-3 multi function USB instrument. My day is now complete. #TestEquipment #RadioShack #TechnologyPlus #NewOldStock #Geek #HomeLab
