Kuanomar's PSK thread prompted me to start a split thread. In this thread I'll display pictures of my PSK and GHB along with descriptions of the gear. Please note: my weekly routine includes spending a lot of time in a suburban office building; traveling to job sites (most of which are within 1 hour's drive from my house); and commuting 17 miles (one way) to and from work.
