AA5PK in 2007

I tried to lay this shack out so more than one person could sit at the desk at one time.  It works out well.  One day I'll get around to re-working the equipment "rack" to make it  more ergonomic.   On the other side of the room is my workbench with test equipment and more books and assorted junque.  A closet to the right of the operating table houses extra equipment, the antenna switches, weather station interface, and more books, parts, and radio junque.

Equipment:
Kenwood TS-440S/AT HF transceiver
Kenwood SP-430 speaker
Kenwood MC-80 microphone
Bencher paddles and Logikey K-3 keyer
