Ham Radio Outlet coming to Texas

Ham Radio Outlet, the worlds largest Amateur Radio product and accessories

retailer, announced a new retail Super Store in Plano, TX. This new store

will include a multi-thousand foot retail floor plan, which will stock and

have on display a vast selection of amateur radio products and accessories.

Included within the facility will be a large demonstration area, which will

have many of the current amateur radio products connected to antennas for

use and display.

"We believe the Dallas / Fort Worth area has been under served for some

time," said National Sales Manager, Steve Gilmore. "With this new super

store in Plano Texas, we will have a retail and shipping facility to allow

customers in the Dallas / Fort Worth area a place to shop for amateur radio

products and accessories. This allows for our Company to better serve

surrounding areas by being able to ship products often within one (1) day

to Oklahoma, most of Texas, and parts of Kansas, Arkansas and Louisiana."

"We have a plan, we have a manager, and we have a facility. We are ready to

go," said National Operations Manager, Chuck Wyrick. "It's a big job to

open a store, but in this case, it is absolutely necessary and important to

serve Texas. Participating in amateur events, such as Hamfests, within the

Texas and Oklahoma areas will now be far easier."

"It's an exciting time for us at HRO," indicated President, Robert Ferrero.

"We are extremely proud to have the opportunity to move into Texas and

provide a place for Hams to be able to come in and shop. So much is mail

order today, however that does not provide the hands on experience. Our new

store in Plano will be a new retail model, vast in size, with significant

on-hand inventory. If our customer wants an amateur product, I expect to

have it in Plano in 2015."

Ham Radio Outlet expects the opening of its new facility at 701 E. Plano

Parkway, Suite 406, Plano, Texas 75074 in the first quarter of 2015.

HRO, Inc. (dba. Ham Radio Outlet) is a family owned business with twelve

(12 ) stores located throughout the United States as well as the largest

amateur radio E Commerce website, making it the largest Ham Radio

dealership in the world. Ham Radio Outlet is headquartered in Danville,

California and has been serving the amateur community both nationally and

internationally since 1971.
