Gary says, "I am STILL in business
and sell mainly from my web site.... www.oldradioparts.com
I am going on my 17th year in business.

I did close my retail store (walk in) but
I am still in business with my mail order
web site."
Note: I have purchased from Gary and
always found his items accurately
described and fairly priced - K2TQN
