My new setup..

[mharris]

Now i have my own thread! (Sorry DagWag for riding on your post)

The desk is from Functional Furnishings (now out of business). I live in a loft so my antennas are limited. I am using several mag mounts on a steel monitor stand placed on the top shelf. Does anyone know of an inexpensive indoor active antenna for HF monitoring?

I notice how all of your wires are neatly hidden. Nice looking set up you got there!!!!

Here's my guess....

Top Shelf - Uniden BC-898T

Mounted below that: Left to Right:
Unknown CB radio
Realistic PRO-2096
ICOM IC-2200H
ICOM either an IC-208 or ID-800
and on the desk a Yaesu FT-450 HF

Matt, are either of those ICOM's got DSTAR installed in it? I'm using DSTAR down here, my repeater is gatewayed you should give me a hollar some time. KB5FSV port C is what I hang out on. The rpt is KI4TMJ/G

Very simple, yet functional. Great job.

Love the Coast to Coast AM page on the PC. There's a George Noory UFO special on SciFi right now.

Hi Nexus,

You are correct on my equipment list! And yes, the 2200H has the D-STAR board. I will see if I can get into the local repeater (W8DIG) and gateway to your machine.

Take care!

heh I hope you don't try to call me tonight. I'm at work and the HT is turned off in the POV. I see you made it into the repeater at least once. Oh and I forgot to mention the Motorola portable on the desk XTS3000 perhaps?

 

[protias]

Very nice setup. I wish my desk was that clean.

 

[KD4KNR]

I like that a lot. I like the way you mounted your scanners and there are not wires everywhere.

 

[bonus1331]

What kind of mobile antennas are you using and for monitoring what?
Looking to try a mobile out in the house myself.

 

[N1XDS]

Great looking setup. What kind of motorola radio is that?

 

[kenisned]

Looks great!

What scanner is receiving Europe? Can't help but notice the map in the background.

There is also a Yaesu FT-450 HF/6 meter radio in the picture that can receive shortwave broadcasts as well as transmit. Maybe that's why he has the world map.
