• Notes

• This was Radio Shack's lowest priced and longest running amplifier and appeared in the catalogs from 1975-1994 as Cat. No. 31-1982 for a price of $29.95.  The size remained the same, but there was a slight style change starting in 1979.  The 1975-1978 catalog pictures show slide switches, whereas the later models have lever switches. 

  The SA-10 (31-1982A) model was produced from 1979 until appoximately 1990.  The earlier model SA-10 (31-1982) was produced from 1975-1978, and the later model SA-10 (31-1982B) was produced starting approximately in 1991 and ending in 1994. 

  Note that the European version is 220/240 volts.
