Default My Various setups

It was suggested over on Firepics.net that I post these images here, as they appeared in a topic titled "How I Know and How I Get there" on that site.

First up, my Trailblazer. Yaesu FT-8800, XM Radio, and Samsung Q1Ultra PC

My "work" car-it's 90 miles roundtrip and the 4 cylinder engine does much better than the trailblazer.

2004 Malibu-Icom IC-208H, with a RH-96 connected to a Bearcat 15 under the passenger seat. Both radios, the GPS and the XM radio receiver are all controlled through a custom relay box mounted under the passenger seat and controlled by the switch to the left of the 208H

Finally, my office. I emptied it out in March, and it took me about 6 weeks to reorganize/rebuild it the way I wanted it.

and finally, the radio side. In the box from L-R are a BC-785D, GRE PSR-600, Yaesu FT-8800 and a Yaesu FT-7800. A BCD-396T is up high in the center.

On the table are a RS PRO-96, PRO-106, Motorola MTX9250 and a Motorola HT-1550XLS

The monitors are on wall mounts, and can be swung out of the way to create a workbench

A seriously neat series of setups!

Your office is a credit to you and puts mine to shame!

Whatever is happening, you have it covered.

Excellent and well thought out- not to mention your great quality photo's.

Regards, Commscanaus.
