Does anyone know if there are any coax/scanner coax dealers in the area that are open on weekends? Wanting to find something local if possible without going down to HRO in Port. and other than Radio Shack. Thanks..

Is AlphaTronics open near Southcenter?
They sell by the foot.

Mike, the only place i know of is Vetco in Bellevue. They're on Northup Way near Lowes and Gold's Gym. I believe they're open on Saturdays. You might want to call them to make sure they have the length in stock.

I drove-by where AlphaTronics "used" to be, and they are not there any longer. mI think I remember hearing a rumor that they went out of business.

The ham store south of Boeing field is no more?
It's been five years since I've lived over that way.

All of them are gone. HRO in Portland is the closest to Seattle now if you don't count
the 1 in Vancouver, BC & 1 in Burnaby, BC which are waaaaaaay overpriced.

ABC Communications may still be in business but had no ham stuff the last time I was in there a few years ago.

If you know what you want, you can order from Tessco, Talley and Hutton.

I stopped by ABC Communications last month in North Seattle. What a sad mess, I am amazed they are still in business (barely). Junk laying around everywhere, not much inventory, a few old ham rigs and scanners... Not sure about the coax, maybe some dusty roll in the corner if they can find it.

And then there's Electronic Resourcing Incorporated, or ERI... In Olympia... Probably the last good ol' fashioned Electronics components, tools, etc... place left in the area. And they have a pretty good stock of connectors, too...

They moved to one of the storefronts in the back of a nearby office/industrial complex a year or so ago. Did you look there? It is not easy to find.
