   Radio Shack (yes, it was two separate words until much later) was founded in Boston in 1921 by two brothers, Theodore and Milton Deutschmann. They sold both ship radios and radios for amateur gadget enthusiasts, so it made sense that they named their company for the “radio shacks” where radios were housed on naval vessels.
