Hello All,
 
I guess everyone knows the history of the Tac Tec RCA radio?  That radio
single handed put RCA out of business.  The engineers apparently copied the
GE Mastr II radios almost verbatim and GE took them to court and won, bye
bye RCA....
 
Like you said, they looked like GE's, small wonder....
 
Paul

Dayton 2008 Chuckle (Tac-Tec - humor)

Just another Dayton 2008 bit of "seller humor". One flea market 
space had a stack of 6 large RCA Tac Tec Mobiles for sale at a 
modest $30 each "firm". 

Great Radio for its day and probably still quite usable for 
some ham project (the version that looks like a GE Mobile) but 
at that price I'm sure he took them back home or they went into 
the scoop loader on Sunday. 

cheers, 
s. 

ps: Now if they'd been RCA Series 700 stuff I might have been 
interested in the stack for $30 total... :-) 

pss: I know there's an RCA Carfone out there somewhere... still 
waiting to appear from someones garage. 

:-)
