I've got 3 of those and 2 of the 2 scanner versions that I've been using pretty much since the first came out. The reasons I am using them are... 1) The `triplet' versions, and also the `duplex' versions, allow me to have a nice easily moved pretty much any time may have to move my scanners. (EG1: When I am either cleaning the top of the desk/library table or am doing either a `shuffling' of scanner types.) (EG2: Needing to hook up either a new antenna, speaker, or other accessory) The other reason, which was my `initial' reason for getting them. (EG3: I wanted to be able to be able to tilt them up so that it would be easier to read the display of controls. Finally the last reason... (EG4: Later on as I was finally starting to realize that willy-nilly the desk/table space was rapidly disappearing I was able to turn all of the groups of scanners such that it made mounting the brackets and scanners very easily up under one of the shelves [Actually a bookshelf I'd originally set on the backside of desk/library table that, fortunately wasn't cluttered up like the top of my desk/Library table.])
Yeah... I probably could have gone and made a `custom' `bookshelf/hutch' and used either the screws for the mobile mounting bracket, a mobile mounting brack, or something I could have `cobbled up' out in my workshop. But, then I might have had to process of gathering up all the materials, build it, empty out and move someplace else along with getting all the needed holes for the `side' screws properly spaced and sized. Since I already had a decent `bookshelf/hutch' that I'd bought at a `garage sale' that already fitted my `D/LBT' it was definitely a whole heck of a lot cheaper and easier to just go ahead and `re-use' the existing mounting brackets.
(For those who might ask... My usual setup is 3 - PSR600s, 3 PRO2096s, 2 PSR410s, and 2 PRO2055s and the 2 PRO2006s and a few other `bits-n-pieces' I like to have available sit above the the ones in the brackets. I *do* expect that I will probably either shuffles things around on the existing `bookshelf/hutch' , find a bigger `bookshelf/hutch', or break down and finally build my own. {WAN GRIN!} Hopefully, for now at least, I still have enough room for any other radios I may purchase.
Quite frankly, I am very happy with these brackets. So far, I don't expect I'm going to be changing things around or purchasing more scanners.
