Ham Radio

Thoughts of a Dutch radio amateur

My shack

Here are some pictures of my shack. As you probably can see, it’s a very small room. So small in fact, that I wasn’t able to make a picture that would cover it all, not even with my back against the wall. Clicking on a picture will show a larger version.

I never felt the urge to sell something in order to replace it, which is the reason for all the classic equipment shown here. All of them still look and function as they were just taken out of the box.

  1. Good grief! I do like that shack and all those radios!

    Are the guitars plugged in too?!

  3. What a great collection. I have just started putting up some photos of my shack but nothing near like this, I guess we are all totally different in how we operate.

    At the moment I have more computers than I do radios, but I have been with the computer some 10-15 years and only a ham for less than one, so I guess I’ll just have to catch up.

    Thanks for the photos, they look great, I would love to see more close up shots of some of the radios (or a list of what they are), but what you have posted looks great, thanks.

  8. That’s a great collection!
    Is that a FT-101ZD in the first picture? I’d had one some time before.
