Shack in 1962. It discontinued catalog sales
and reduced inventory and started opening
small retail outlets. It began
publishing do-it-yourself electronics books.
Radio Shack's parent company, the Tandy
Corporation, purchased Allied Electronics
and Allied Radio in 1970. On the consumer
side, the new firm became known as Allied
Radio Shack.
