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

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. :-) No virus found in this incoming message.
