Photo #3: Corner view of the room w/ another computer for listening other feeds via the internet
Photo #4: Radio box consisting of two W4 astro spectras one W7 and one W5 along w/ a CDM 1550 and XTS2500. - All monitoring local public safety systems (one providing the Twin state fire feed online @ RR)
Photo #5 - Remote mounted ASTRO spectra W7 for bedroom monitoring..haha
Photo #6 - older pic of antenna set up but still looks pretty much the same.

A magnificent /\/\ shack you have there- very well done and very professional!
Must say I am most suitably impressed. Also that model tower is exactly what I have been trying to convince a friend to make for his model railway layout.
The antenna setup is nice an neat too.
That wall mounted Spectra head is something special!
Excellent!!! Regards, Commscanaus.

Very impressed, one of the best I've seen yet. On your first picture, on the bottom left, is that a model of a tower site? Did you do that or something you bought made? That is pretty nice piece.

The Box is cool, the Model Tower is cool, I love the sepectra mounted on the wall. For the box was that a old DJ equipment speaker or something?

In addition to all the model questions, what agency is that Crown Vic a reproduction of?
(Nosy Texans, I know).

Thanks for the comments!
The model tower itself was bought at a local model train store for about $20. It was the tower by itself. I added the grass, trees, etc. The guy wires were made using small thread. The PD unit @ the tower site is a New Hampshire State Police crusier. It was laying around so I set it there, ha.
The box was built entirely by scratch using 2x3's, plywood, and some speaker carpet. Outfitted it w/ a cooling fan, vent, and some radios.
