The trick is to lay out the radios and accessories in several ways until you are happy with things like sight lines, reach factors and aesthetics.
If you have a spouse or SO, (especially one that is not into radios!) have them look at it and make suggestions. My wife, being deaf, could care less about the radios but has come up with several great ideas for arranging things.
If I can con the wife into it I would get a second SecretLabs Magnus ProXL desk like I have now and use it for the radio desk. I would then put the PC there to run and program the radios and leave my other desk for my Mac station. Some standing desks do not go down far enough to use the fairly high (11 inches) cabinet with a monitor on top, this one does. I just bought her a new TV so maybe she will feel generous once it arrives!
Well, an update:
The wife had another good idea. She suggested a Husky (HomeDepot) workbench like the one I have in the garage for my radio desk. It would be a lot cheaper and match the tool chest I have in my office now. This way I could reuse these in the workshop should I decide on another change down the road (Not that I ever change things in here!). In addition it was a third the price of another SecretLabs desk.
So we went to the HomeDepot webpage and found that they have the same type workbench as I already have in black and wider (62"). It came with or without drawers, I figured one could never have enough storage space so I opted for the one with drawers. I ordered it Saturday and it arrived this morning. Thankfully I woke up early as it arrived before 7:00 AM. By 10:30 I had it all assembled and ready to go, it took me longer to unpack the box than it did to assemble it.
After I got back from a Lunch Bunch with the local radio club I brought it in from the garage. As it is on casters that was easy. I disconnected the antenna, USB and power cables from the radio cabinet and slid the old desk out. I then rolled the new desk in along side and slide the cabinet from the old to the new like I used to sling patients from an ambulance cot to an ER bed years ago. An hour or so of reconnecting the cables and cleaning up the sheathing and I was all done.
Here is the new workbench with the radios. Pretty much the same layout as before, same radios as well.
Here is the new workbench (left) with the tool chest I bought a few months ago (right). The wife liked that they matched!
I might delete the end table in the corner and place my network cabinet in the tool chest, there is room.
This shows the proximity of the main desk with the radio desk. The left two screes are on my Mac, the far right display is for the Windows computer running ProScan, Sentinel, ARC-xx, and other radio programs.
I think this fall I will have the house interior painted again, it has been 6 or 7 years. I will have them paint the wire chases to match, one is already painted but it has been up there since before we painted the last time.
