No Ham Shack is complete without a workbench full of projects.

While perhaps not common for Ham Shacks, Oscar wouldn’t dare think of having one without a wall of books. Some electronics and radios, the rest history. And, of course, a Western Union clock.

And the final piece required for any ham shack are two sweet dogs who followed him everywhere.
