Looks like your base desk was of your own build and the fortifications, which I noted from your wiring video is also very impressive. Don't bother to ask permission from your wife, I didn't either. She had to be placed in dementia care, she was a BSN, and now to fill my time and have something to look forward to, adding a tower, the SteppIR Vertical, and perhaps then the urban beam which seems doable based on one of your other videos. Thank you for sharing your time.

I have a lot of noise in my areas and had the local electric company did some repairs and it helps a lot. I was worried that the new TV was goanna create noise although it was unlikely to do anything since it's an LCD not plasma, but fortunately there’s no new noise induce by this addition. 73 Pascal VA2PV
