RadioShack Joins SBCA

National consumer-electronics retailer RadioShack Corp. joined the Satellite
Broadcasting & Communications Association, the SBCA announced Thursday.

RadioShack has already sent 1,100 installers through the SBCA's national
standards and testing program, introduced last year.

'The importance of professionalism can never be overstated, especially at the
retailer and installer level,' RadioShack Installation Services vice president
of operations Fred Walkover said in a press release.

The SBCA has been actively pursuing new members in recent months to help
counter the consolidation in the direct-broadcast satellite business.

The association also announced Thursday that Arianespace has joined
it.
