I'm just curious what everyone's operating positions look like. If you feel comfortable, share a photo or two.

Here's mine. I'm really wanting some sort of shelving to sit the monitor's on to help tidy things up a bit. I'm not too handy though, so it'll be an adventure. The autotuner controller drives me crazy because it won't sit flat due to the heavy coax coming into the back.

A bit. Here's one, I'm waiting for a friend to finish 3D printing a mounting point for the driven element.
I'm fairly new to ham radio, and like building antennas.

Two meters? I have a 2 meter Arrow yagi that I like quite a bit. I got it because a buddy and I were practicing CW on 2 meters and he lives a good distance from me. Works like a charm!

Yes, it's for 2m. I don't really have much use for it, since repeater coverage in my area is great. Though there is one I can only just receive with the rubber ducky antenna, so this might work for that.

Any SOTA peaks near your QTH? It'd be great for that.

I have line of sight to the Alps. I assume there is some SOTA going on there.

That would be fun. I’m about 30 minutes away from the Rocky Mountains but haven’t done any SOTA yet.
