About
Us...
Cason & Gaskins TV
was founded in 1951 by J.B. Cason and Leroy Gaskins.
Previous each had owned and operated a radio shop in Wildwood and opened as partners
when black and white television became popular. They sold and
serviced Philco TV's and installed TV antennas when there was
only one station available, broadcasting from Jacksonville.
The original shop was located on
Main Street long before Main Street was a four lane road. In 1967
Cason and Gaskins TV moved to its present location in the
Wildwood Shopping Center.

In the early 1960's, as
color television became widely available, Cason & Gaskins TV sold and serviced Zenith
TV's. During the 60's and 70's most television and antenna
repairs were done in the home, and to keep up with business they had as many as six service
trucks on the road daily. Their excellent reputation was based
largely on the exceptional service they provided after the sale.
In 1977, the year the
first
Tandy computers were introduced, Cason & Gaskins TV became a
Radio Shack authorized dealer. In the mid 80's they began
selling and installing "C Band" satellite systems (the
huge 12 foot dishes).
