Default Temp Setup For Winter Monitoring

Was out of the hobby for a while (yes, divorce will have that affect on some of us).

Dug everything out (that wasn't sold) a couple months ago now and I am ready for Winter in ohio.

Have plans for a much better antenna setup, but this will do for the winter.

Antennas: (2) Scantennas ST2 - Celwave Verticle(VHF) (bought about 2 years ago just now using) - Centerfire 3 element Yagi(MURS) - Radio Shack Mobile Mag Mount(local PD) - Long Wire for Shortwave(62')

Scanners/Receivers: (on the desk)Pro-2052 - Pro-2053 - Pro-2040 - Pro-2032 - Pro-2026
(shelf above scanner rack)Grundig YB-P2000
(shelf to the left next to the monitor) (7) Uniden BC-350A a Few of these will be used for live streaming shortly.
(Top shelf left)Grundig S350DL - Pro-62 - Pro 42.

You will notie there are NO Digital Scanners, I don't need any, there are only 2 systems in this area and when i get around to it I might pick one up.

There are a lot of pics of the antennas becuase it's hard to see them in certain angles, so please excuse all the similar pics.

I reduced the photos to 800X600 as advised in the starter thread to this forum section.
Links for original file size photo's are at the bottom (30272X2304) if you want a closer view or anything.

Remember, This is a temp setup for the antenna's,so nothing is neat and orderly like it should be, just has to work till Spring.

Nice set up. I see a stack of those Uniden 350's in a few shots - curious what you used them all for?

The scantenna looking antenna with the longer elements - that looks like an old school scantenna I used to have years ago when they first started making them. I thought it had WAY better performance than the newer ones - but the newer ones are strunger. Could you direct me to where you purchased it?

In the third pic of the outdoor antennas its the one on the left I was talking about.
Thanks. and excellent setup and shack!

very curious about all the BC 350's, where is your audio selecting switchbox? also how many speakers do you have hooked up?
