Ham Radio retailer Universal Radio, headquartered in Worthington, Ohio, is closing its store on November 30, although all existing orders will be filled, and the Universal Radio website will remain open to sell off "remaining stock, publications, and some select products." Owners Fred Osterman, N8EKU, and Barbara Osterman, KC8VWI, are retiring.
"I am very fortunate to have been in the radio business for over 50 years, 13 at RadioShack and 37 at Universal Radio," Fred Osterman said in a message of gratitude to its patrons. "We have met many wonderful people along the journey who have supported me personally as well as Universal Radio. It has been a privilege to have a continuous career in the fascinating field of radio since 1969."
The new mailing address for Universal Radio is 752 N State St. Unit 222, Westerville, OH 43082, telephone (614) 866-4267. (This is not a storefront.)
