Electronic Hobby Kits Radio Shack Review

Those who follow me know, that repairing and restoring of vintage audio equipment has been a passion of mine for a very long time. I have so many memories that I would love to share with you… Let me tell you just one. When I was a kid, I loved to visit a Radio Shack store in my native town. It was not the biggest one but I always was able to find some interesting stuff which my parents were willing to pay for.

You could have guessed that my favorites were some electronic kits, especially radio ones. My first RadioShack kit was a loudspeaker. Once built, it was used for audio-cassette tape recorder. At that time, I was not even able to solder properly, and was so happy that this kit didn’t require no soldering.

I just followed step by step instructions and had a great DIY gadget. That was amazing!

I’m really happy, and I mean it, that these radio kits are still available. You can buy them and have hours of fun doesn’t matter how old you are and what is your level of expertise. I remain convinced that anyone would be able to find a proper kit for himself.

If you are an adult and get nostalgic about your youth, you can go for a retro model and build your very own piece of retro cool – a 1970’s style working FM radio.

Let’s have a look at the available RadioShack radio kits.
