My current mess is an Alinco DXSR-8T, Kenwood TM-v71a, and MFJ-941e antenna tuner.

I have the Alinco on my gun safe and my KW on top of my old circa 1992 Pioneer stereo rack cabinet.. in my bedroom.. the 2 power supplies are down inside the rack to give the rigs some RF breathing room.. 1 is a Megawatt 35 amp and the other is a DF 10amp.. the DF feeds the KW, and the Mega feeds the Alinco..

Looking to move it to the work shop room on the new bench you can't currently see.

Gonna have to rethink my antenna setup as well everything is on the opposite side of this room.. the HF coax should be long enough to cross the hallway and get back to the endfed matchbox.. I really don't want to have to route over the roof or all the around..

My mobile home park is like HOA so all my antennas are hidden in the rear by the trees..

Oh man, someone should help you out here, it looks like you wanted to move to Mars! ;)

Moving sucks--no two ways about it. I still have stuff in boxes and I moved over four years ago. Motivation is low and space less so, so the stuff stays in boxes.
 
Latest update.. bed in for my 16yo to visit in August.. bench gaining space..

That box on right really has to go.. then the white stackable can move over that corner..

As it stands now I have 41" open from the stackable to the right side.. :)
