Ham Radio Outlet is pleased to announce the upcoming move and store expansion of our Portland, Oregon location. Due to increased demand and Ham Radio Outlet’s dedication to providing our customers with exceptional sales and service we are updating and expanding the Portland, Oregon store to an HRO Superstore.
Opening in mid to late July 2016, the HRO Superstore will be located at 14405 SW Pacific Hwy, Tigard, OR 97224. The new location is approximately 2 miles from the existing Ham Radio Outlet. The new store will double the store size, more than quadruple the display areas, and provide ample storage for HRO’s vast inventory of products.
