God morning Cam,
Here's my "shack": a corner of a table in the family room.  It consists of
a TekPower power supply and an Icom 7300 and Mr. Potato Head (whose RF
function is yet to be determined, but Bea likes it)..  Not shown is an
inline SWR/power meter and the 6 coax (i'm wildly optimistic about antenna
growth) window feedthru.  The rig connects via 100' of LMR240 coax to a
homebrew 40m EFHW in the side yard.  Tuning the antenna was
frustratingly educational but I learned a lot about Smiths charts.  I tuned
it with a NanoVNA, a great little tool that could have pride of place in
any ham's tool kit.

So maybe I'm not "flexing" on my shack, but looking for sympathy   HI HI
