Shack
We moved to this QTH in summer 2013.
Unlike the previous QTH, I have a dedicated room for building and operating. Sadly, my poor health has made building far more difficult, so I tend to concentrate most of my activity these days on digital modes like FT8 and WSPR. I still use voice modes sometimes.
Building and modifications are done on the left whilst operating is on the right, overlooking the garden.
With WSPR and FT8 I can monitor activity on a different PC in the lounge if I want.
The photo makes the room look far bigger than it is!
