I'll have a raspberrypi running a weather station at the qth and possibly a lightening radar detector.
There should be a HAB SDR running as well to a 70cm antenna so will be able to track operations.
The long in the building multiband SDR and integral PC will be up and running as well with a dedicated RX antenna.
I'll post links as they go online.
The rest of the shack will be populated as time allows but I expect I will have My HRO and R1155 installed rapidly along with a type 45 or type 27 TX and a crystal based 6V6 TX. (ready for G3VTT GQRP valve day in November). The more modern side will consist of an Elecraft K2 and KX3 and assorted bits and bobs like and SDR cube and a data modem.

Operating location from a top in alps c2600m
Now this was a perfect SOTA location, I stayed on top overnight and used the flag pole to my right to support a 40m/20m dipole, you can see the fixture I connected to, the little ring clamp, as soon as the cable car stopped for the night out came the radio gear, it even snowed! If I had taken 2m yagi would have been amazing location as line of sight was > 80miles, the Eiger and Jungfau (Bernese Oberland group) are in the photo over my right shoulder. Temp dropped to below minus 15 but the morning operating the grey line was fun 100 or so QSO SSB qrp as HB9/M1KTA/P.
