Here are a few photos of my setup. Still in the beginning stages. Hoping to add a base radio and a few more things later on.

Shot of the command center with my USB dongles doing some trunking.

My little indoor antenna farm. Gotta love apartment living.

Looks good! Be sure to update us when you get the base station(s) you're talking about.

Nice use of the space, I see decks there too! I run my midi controller on what looks like the same laptop as well.

What are you using the dipole for?
Larry

Dipole was a failed 2 meter 1/4 wave attempt. My rubber duckies work better. I am in like some sort of transmit shielding bubble. I can pull in stations from the other side of the state but can't hit repeaters a mile and a half away.lol

The di-pole as shown is horizontal polarized , it will not work well for anything that is vertical polarized. Cross polarization is a sure 20db loss right off the bad. turn it vertical and I bet it works a lot better.
