Nice to see a modest radio room. Minimalist, a couple of small transceivers and required peripheral gear. Plus some personal touches to give all a bit of humanity. Desk not sagging with the weight of many many rigs. Well done.

Good looking setup! And very functional. I got my Technician last September and am testing for General in a week...just started putting together my shack. You’ve given me some great ideas! Thanks!!

Excellent job Jason! The shack is neatly and logically laid out. A neat shack is so much more enjoyable to me. Now subbed.

I think I like the shelf the best. I love organization! Very nice shack!

[sunrisecochin]

Nice setup no messup with the cables in back

[phildurall]

Simple, clean, efficient! ... Just like your code! Nicely done Sir!

My favorite part is the place to clip HTs. I'm definitely stealing that idea!!

[sklise]

love the mascot and the grand daughter pic. Beautiful. About to build a shed in the backyard. Appreciate the walk thru and gave me some ideas.

You know what else I don’t see here? Cables! Very clean setup!

I've been setting up a VHF/UHF station for a friend. I'm starting to think I'm going to retire on that job. Then I need to do the same for another friend. I really need to tidy up my shack.

[genebodenberger]

Nice set up. If you walk into my shack, you would think a bomb went off.

[timk]

Looking good. That is a neat and tidy shack. 👍

[TerryGwrs]

Nice setup Jason and tidy and thank you for all the work you do for us Hams.

Thanks for the tour. I pick you up on APRS whenever I’m driving through the area on I-24.

Excellent looking shack Jason, you gave me some ideas. I love how you dual purposed your radio, fixed but portable, good thinking.
I’d love to see a video on your digipeater setup, I want to build one for my area.
Great write up in QST! Keep on keeping on, 73

Nice clean layout, Jason. Guess I better straighten out my rat's nest. LOL

[mikemcdonald]

saw your article in the latest qst magazine. Good stuff.

[andrewhamop]

Now that is one neat and well organized shack! My shack is much more cramped, I have to fit everything on top of a dresser lol. It does work though, but I do need some more Raspberry Pi's for everything.

I also need to make a proper cable for my FT-2600M to do packet, right now it's just some 4 conductor wire with tinned ends hihi. I have a 2m packet WinLink gateway about 6 miles from my house, so once I get my TNCs firmware upgraded I'll be able to use it in KISS mode with WinLink Express.

Hopefully we can get to see your antennas next time, I always love comparing antennas! Thanks for the tour Jason!

Watching this video has caused me to hate my setup. Guess I've got something to do now.
