Update after hurricane
Ok, so it's now the day after Hurricane Sandy hit us in Philadelphia. I just placed my camera on a pole and took some video of my roof. The great news is my antenna setup is completely unscathed. It didn't move an inch! I'm amazed, frankly. I thought it would have moved around, but it didn't.

As I am a renter, drilling and screwing was not an option, so I devised this contraption to mount my antennas on using some black iron pipe and fittings. The LMR-400 feed line just runs in through the window. The longer antenna is a dual band antenna. It is connected through a duplexer to my VHF and UHF MCS-2000 model 2's. The shorter antenna is a high gain UHF antenna which is connected through an amplifier and splitter to my feed radio and scanners. The new desk now has the 2 MCS-2000's, Pro-197 and CDM feed radio mounted under the shelf, the PSR-800 currently resides on the desktop, and the HT-750, HT-1250 and Wouxun dual bander reside on top of the shelf.

Good looking shack and very inventive job on the antenna set up. In the 2nd picture of the antenna setup, if you look between your antennas, I see what appear to be two towers with beams on top. Is that correct or my eyes playing tricks on me? Thank you for posting.

Yeah, you're probably right!
I forgot about those "old" TV antennas on poles.
You've surely got better eyes than mine.
