Rich, what do you do with all that equipment? I am very interested.

Well, I have 4 radios mostly dedicated to searching the Mil Air bands, one each for railroads, civil air and CloseCall, a couple for Low-band searching, one or two for monitoring trunked data signals, and a couple for local public safety and business stuff.
Having a radio dedicated to a specific task allows me to use the best for the job. For example, while I have 10 BCT15/X's, I have found that they vary in sensitivity on certain bands. Once I figure out which one worked best on those bands I assigned it to that task.
I do the same for antennas, although that is still evolving. I was able to get a couple up in the attic before the heat got bad, the rest are going to have to wait until this winter when it gets down to the 70's... The low was 94 last night, you can only imagine how hot it would be in the attic this time of year here, even at night.
