I can’t remember which one we went to when I was a kid but I remember it being in or near Mineola?

There are still Radio Shacks.  I know of one that is still open.  The main reason it's still in business is because it's a US Cellular store.

Not sure. Only remember Elmont and Hempstead. I stole a lot of records from the music department in TSS

Radio Shack always made me laugh.  When you go into a store and know exactly what you need and you know exponentially more than the 19 year old trying to help you.
