AA4BA SHACK

   Welcome to the webmasters work shack.  Since I spend more time at work than at home, having a decent shack is imperative.  Most of the equipment is second hand, hand-me-downs and refurbished junk.  But it all works impeccably. 

    I converted the mechanical room with the HVAC equipment to my radio room.  Since this room was kind of rough to begin with I had the advantage of not having to worry about ruining anything.  As thus, I have taken the liberty to do some things that most XYL's would totally freak about if you tried this at home.

AA4BA SHACK OVERVIEW

AA4BA POWER SUPPLIES

 

   The shack power supplies are backed up with several modes to keep the radios working no matter what happens to the power company grid.  The first line of defense are several 1200 VA uninterruptible power supplies.  These filter the power and keep the radios running during short outages and brown outs.  The next system is a bank of automotive batteries that are charged regularly.  There are two inverters to step the power up to 117 volts for household current devices.  The final line of defense are three generators.
