Good point, Rob. Most museums have more stuff than they have room to
display, and I suspect their storage areas look more like a "hoard".
I think the tipping point may come when you find yourself stacking
radios for maximum utilization of shelf space rather than for visual
appeal. To me, this stuff is just 3-dimensional wallpaper, if I can't
look at it what's the point? But then I realized some time ago I
must be subconsciously trying to re-create the "Reconditioned Equipment
Department" at WRL where my novice rig came from, which seemed at the
time to have at least one of everything.
