Questions & Answers

radio shack?
has anyone worked,or is working at radio shack?if so do you like the job? do you like the pay? is it a friendly environment? anything else i need or should know?

Radio Shack started as a place for hobbyists, ham radio, electronics, and eventually computers. They moved their model to malls and more consumer goods, ie Cell Phones, TVs, BUT still cater (to some degree) to the home hobbyist. My opinion is that they are making money by the cell phone credits they get (remember they are national and sell a LOT of phones), plus a few bucks on batteries, answering machines, etc. I, like your husband, dont like to shop there unless it is something I think that only they will carry locally, like electronic components (resistors, boards, switches) because I think they are overpriced on everything else. CompUSA went under because they just couldnt compete with BestBuy. They had little to no technical support, a limited inventory and very expensive locations, usually in strip malls. They just didnt make any right moves in the last 10 years to keep them competitive, and neglected to make money in services like the Geek Squad does.



How do I get a Radio Shack scanner to pick up trunk police calls?
Have a Radio Shack Pro 2050 scanner and all I get is static. How do I set it to get trunk police calls? Do I need to get a APCO-25 card to install?

You need to have a trunking scanner which can also be purchased at Radio Shack

I've been working at RadioShack for about two or three months now in Alabama. Part time starts out at 6.50/hr which I did and recently since they moved me to full time I get 7/hr. The pay should be better, the commission/spiff they give you can be better. Its a alright job. I'm using it to et a background and eventually move onto something better. This week, I worked 34 hrs my paycheck was $351 before taxes. That included my $50 cellular commision and my $50 performance commision.



What are the benefits of shopping at Radio Shack?
My husband doesn't like shopping there. What do you think? Why does Comp USA shut down and radio shack stays open?
