Looking Good!!! Is that a LED scrolling sign on your wall???
VERY COOL. I like the POCSAG scroll. Very different!
Also, the mix of old and new equipment makes for a well rounded shack.
Nice to see the old xtals still pulling their weight.
Wireless mice are probably on sale right now, might clean up the old desk a little. Seriously, no complaints, looks good.

Yeah, that's the LED sign that scrolls the POCSAG messages off the county alpha pager. Got it at an auction for 5 bucks and with a little modifications it turned out to be a good buy.
The xtals pull in some stuff better then the Kenwood and the Vertex radios do, only thing I have to do is find some more crystals for them.
I'm looking into getting an old consule from the comm center that just moved to a new location to try and clean up the clutter a bit, I looked at walmart for wireless mice they were goin for 30 bucks a peice. Once I get my radios I want I'll worry about the mice.
I have a MARATRAC with a remote head on the way, a VHF maxtrac, another VHF with an A9 remote head, and a couple scanners I have to find somewhere to put. Have a little amp for the Cherokee base station, little leary about hooking that up. A guy from the FCC just moved in across the street and was already questioning about my antenna setup and what they were all for.
Thanks for the comments!
p.s. anyone that has any vhf, low band, uhf, scanners they're looking to get rid of I'm up for buying just about any of them. I don't have a drug problem, I have a problem of not knowing when to stop buying radios!!!
also, if anyone knows how to program the Motorola GP68 please, please, please let me know, I can't figure this thing out.
