The pics are as follows the first two are from my com center in 2009 with a BC785D and an BCD396T Uniden scanner.

Later pics were my com center up to about August of 2014 which included 1-BC785D, 1-BCT15X, 7-BCD996XT, 1-BCD536HP scanners and my base which was an Icom F-5061 50 watt radio.

Most of these are on live feeds through RR/broadcastify.com.

Most recent pics are of my Com Center:

1-BCT15X, 7-BCD536XT, and 2-BCD536HP scanners along with a new base Vertex Standard VXD-7200 vhf 50 watt radio. All my radios and encoder are in a rack system.

Also spear shot to...have amplified speakers for all radios...this way I can turn this stuff up and down .

Most of these are on live fee through RR/broadcastify.com and everything is recorded.

Hope you like...would love some feed back. Sorry if pics seem fuzzy.

Racking the equipment like that looks neat and clean. Good job.

You might have already considered it, but instead of multiple powered-speakers, you could use an audio-mixer to manage the sound, and be able to use as few as one set of speakers, and even be able to send the audio signal into a computer, or wireless-headset transmitter, if desired.

There are many brands of mixers, and I'm not recommending any particular brand.
Just for visual illustration, here is one example Mackie Mixers.

Just a thought,

Great job on the shack! Love the rack mounts :) We spent the 4th of July week at a Surfside Beach rental and loved it there. Had my PSR-500 with me and listened in all week long.

Rack mounting is truly the next level of organization for serious scanning monitorrs! Im definitely going to switch over next spring! Nice job!

I'm not the OP but I believe that's a USB hub with multiple USP audio adapters. A matching USB hub is to the right, it appears, with USB connections.

There are two 12 port usb hubs that now inside the console along with two multi couplers and my powerex power management system.

There is a usb sound card for each radio,and two audio cables coming out of each...1 for the speaker and 1 to the radio.

Great Set Up. Can I ask where you got the rack circled in the photo below?

Nice to see Zetron gear.

It is rare for me to see Zetron gear, but when I do, I am glad it still works. They are based out of my area. Good gear, that usually works for many years.
Still use a Zetron M30 Worldpatch myself.
