Left Side View. Current project on the bench, Heathkit HBR5 Aircraft Receiver. Feb 06.

Right Side View. My HP equipment. Finally, some really decent test equipment. Great stuff, best test equipment for a reasonable buck.

Kinda the Whole Thing. It's really grown over the years.

Swing to the right, some of the radios. I really need to build a radio room.

The Last  Old Setup

This was about Jan 03. The ever evolving bench, I have added more equipment and thus the layout has changed. Additions include Heat AC Voltmeter, Heath High Voltage Power Supply, Heath Tri Power Supply, Heath Sine/Square Generator, Heath Capacitance Tester, and a WaveTek Sweep Generator.

The Old Setup

May 2002. Different Shot of the new layout. Heathkit LCR Bridge and Heathkit RF Sig Gen added. I put a TV Card in the computer which allowed me to get rid of the TV I used to have on the bench. Also, new computer on the bench, it's a PIII 500 with 128Meg RAM. I put a 40Gig Hard drive in it and put it on the Network. It also gets used as a file server for the entire home network.

The Older Setup

Aug 2001. Here was the older setup before addition of Heath components, new PC, and dumping the TV.
