I couldn't resist...

The second pic shows my main radio stack, the first is how it typically looks when I'm using it.

From the top left,
Rfspace SDR-14, HF receiver/spectrum analyzer (great fun!)
Icom SP-20 speaker (love it!)
Icom R8500 wideband receiver (typically used as a front-end for the SDR-14)
At the top of the rack is a Racklite
Below that is a Lectrosonic MM8 audio matrix (to feed the computer)
AOR SDU-5500
Winradio WR-1550e
Icom PCR-1000 (used primarily as my scanner)
MFJ-1045C RF preselector for HF
ICOM R9000 wideband receiver (typically used for HF utility work, and driven by the SDR-14's SpectraVue software).

In the computer I've got a Wavecom W40PC utility decoding card.
I also use Skysweep, Spectrum Lab and TrunkPCR in addition to the Icom and Winradio software.

Built this up over many years (thanks Ebay!).

Armand.

It doesn't get much better than rack mounted equipment. Impressive rigs you have there.

I agree- it doesn't look any better than rack mounted!!

Nice setup Armand!

For years I would have killed to get an ICOM IC-R9000. Only problem is the wife would have killed me immediately afterward! ;)

I have previously owned an IC-R8500, and PCR-1000, so I have an appreciation and envy for what you have!
