I found a better quality image of this photo but I still don't have any idea what the hell is going on

The person appears to be wearing a diaper. And in the top right corner there's a post with what appears to be Hebrew writing.

In the right side of the picture there's a collection of remote controls and I've counted several phones and calculators scattered about.

Given the disorganized appearance, and the 5 dollar headphones, I'll venture a guess that this person is not so much a professional anything, as much as a Middle Eastern hermit wackjob.

Yeah, looks like an electronics hoarder. Each of those things at one time had a purpose, but 90% of it is sitting there unused and needs to be discarded/recycled.

It's just a picture of my home lab.

Looking nice bro!

A lot of radio equipment.

BBC News on the monitor.

Maps of Iran on the wall.

I'd bet on amateur/independent journalist picking up as much radio traffic as possible.

Nah, that's a hoarder.

[-] Ross_audio@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Definitely a hoarder too, but too much is on for them to not be using any of it.

Air traffic control at home.

Mickey Gurdus, an Israeli ham radio operator and media listener. In the age before the internet he used to listen to every transmission he could find from his homemade lab.
