Repair/Test Area
Here is a picture of my test area and my tube collection. There is a back up web server on the left, backup power supply, cordless telephone, MFJ frequency counter, MultiMate, Oscilloscope, HF-VHF SWR meter, and a laptop with Ubuntu.
Battery bank.
4+ battery for Operating station. Will operate all radio's for 7+ days on full operation.
Servers
I know it looks crazy but it works. In these two pics there is 2 computers one runs SSTV, Logging, RTTY, audio broadcasting and weather monitoring. The other is EchoLink, online backup, and radio recorder. Specs are 3.06 Ghz, one has a 200 GB HDD and the other 500 GB HDD SATA, gigibit, 1 GB RAM, and DVD R/W's. You also see my Vonage box, modem, access point, three switches (Cisco, Netgear, and 3M 55 gigabit ports and 24 10/100), a 1 TB NAS (RAID), 2x APC UPS's, telephone interconnect to the alarm and rest of house, and coax to tower.
This is my Dell PowerEdge 2550 server. It is ran by two Oneac UPS's. It runs my web server, Winlink2000, active directory, DHCP, and other Server 2003 functions.
Internet
Here is an analysis of the Internet Connection. Business Roadrunner. 10 mbp download and 1.5 mbp upload. 99.99% guaranteed uptime. It averages about 11 up and just under 2 down. I have had 0% downtime from ISP problems since February 2003 caused by ISP.
At last count there are 4 complete repeaters, 10 computers, 12 transceivers and 4 scanners running. I also have about 5 computers that I use for parts and lots of spare parts.
