I redid my vehicle install recently. I bought an IC7000 and I was unhappy with the access to some of the scanners, looking at the displays required diverting my gaze too much from the road. I ordered a couple PortaClips (Great stuff BTW!) and went to work. I had had the radios tucked into...

Here is my latest redesign of the shack. Not a lot of new stuff, but some updates. The iMac is new, it is the new i7 27 inch model, replacing the older 24 inch. 16 GB of RAM, along with Windows 7 Pro via Parallels allows me to run most of the shack operations with just this and my other Windows...

While not a lot of exciting new stuff, I felt the need to take down and reload. The wife wanted to make some changes on her side of the office so we did both parts while I had some time off for the holidays. Here is a panoramic shot of my side: Here is the radio rack. I went with a tiered...

Cleaned up the shack over the last few days, got a new (used) computer, a couple additional scanners and moved some stuff around. I felt cramped with a lot of stuff, so I spread things out a bit. This means I roll the chair back and forth a little, but it is nice to clear off some desktop space...

Here is my latest shack arrangement. I got a few new toys (early Christmas presents to myself) and set things up as a Radio Wall. I got smart last weekend when I rearranged things; I placed the radios where I wanted them and tried a couple different arrangements, then mounted the Stridsbergs...

Some equipment changes caused me to rearrange yet again. Here we go from left to right: Far Left, Top Row: Pro96, THF-6A, PSR-500, BCD396T and the the official CARMA Wireless Mic (170.245), MFJ Key and keyer (One of these days I will re-learn the code...) Second Row: Cimarron MDC Decoder...

I have cleaned up my mobile install by deleting a rarely used 4th scanner and a VHF mobile. This makes for a much less cluttered install and makes it easier for me to view my APRS screen. Here is the radio stack. The rack is a Troy Command Console I found at a hamfest a while back. Since they...

The wife bought me a new monitor for my Mac (Thanks Babe!), and took my old one for her new computer. I then decided to rearrange my side of the office, since I also wanted to integrate a couple new BC15's and another 996 I picked up in Dayton. Starting from the top and left to right: Top...

Here is a shot of the mobile install in my vehicle. From top to bottom: RH-96 Remote Head connected to a BCD996T BC796D BC15 CDM1250 UHF CDM1250 VHF CD-1 Tone Decoder On the right side of the console is the control head for my Kenwood TM-D700 dual bander. Out of sight below the RH96 is a...

Well, I can't leave well enough alone. Pretty much the same stuff rearranged again (and again...): Here is an overview of the whole shebang. The radio desk is to the left and the computer desk to the right. This is the CARMA Profile Creation Desk. On the right are the 2 screens for the Mac...

Well, here I go again! I redid my shack again with some new acqusitions and antennas. Overall View: From left to right: At the left is my “Trunker” desk. One computer is a 233 MHz. Pentium running Win98SE (so that I can boot to DOS). I usually use this for Trunker or E-Trunker...

Redid my shack again, reduced the wire clutter and straightened things out a bit. Included are 3 BC780's, a BC796, a Pro2096, Pro2052, a UHF and VHF set of GM300's (For GMRS, ham and other channels) a IC-735 with MFJ auto-tuner and a Cimarron MDC Decoder. On the first shelf are a few...

Here is my shack. Included on the radio desk is a BC796, Pro2052, MFJ auto tuner for the HF rig, a BC396, and a couple handhelds. On the second level are 3 BC780's with CD-1 PL decoders, an Icom IC-735, and Icom IC-2800, a couple Minitors and 4 Plectron receivers (on local fire channels, with...
