I build furniture as one of my hobbies. Therefore I could build a
custom, made to fit, each piece of equipment enclosure or desk. However,
my station is in a reconfigured built in book case system. Cabinets are
located below with doors, and above, shelves are extended to depths of
12" to 18" for equipment and operation, extend to the ceiling. Plus it
is some 6 ft wide. A series of holes in each shelf allows running
cables left to right and up and down. Over some 20 years it has
contained and supported various pieces of equipment from a fully
configured Collins S Line plus a 5 transceiver accumulation and now down
to two transceivers and one amplifier and tuner. Being on the 2nd
floor of the house, all feed lines and rotor control traverse the attic
and drop down through the ceiling to the tuner and coax switch
arrangement at the operating position.
The point being.........flexibility is a must with any installation and
configuration.

Hi,
Just making the point that as things are added, you will need more
space... I once built a tight cabinet like that, and within a year, it
was too small...
