I'm pretty new to the hobby, and I was wondering where some good places to store my hobby phone would be.  If my SO even saw a second phone in the house it would cause some pretty big problems.  I'm just looking for some ideas.

And if it is found, you can always disavow any knowledge of it; just keep it password-locked.

at the moment I had considered placing it in the trunk under the mat that covers the spare tire, another option for the car would be to wedge it in between the cushions in the back seat so if it ever is discovered it looks like it just fell out of someone's pocket and got stuck back there.  Another option I had been toying with is hiding it in an empty drive bay in my desktop.

hide it in the oven.

...do you really need a second hobby phone? Maybe I'm lucky in that my SO isn't nosy or the snooping type. I have alot of stripper and some provider numbers in my everyday phone, but they are coded and the phone has both a password and a pattern lock. Also the phone never really leaves my side. Maybe I'm rolling the dice, but to me a second phone can be more trouble than it's worth.

I am a newbie too, and have been wondering the same thing.  Found out you can rent a USPS post office box for $30 for six months.  Thinking of leaving a phone, and a few other items as well.

I don't have an SO, but I still have a hobby phone.  I would recommend having a hobby phone to anyone that participates unless they are completely blackmail proof.  Everyone has to do what is right for themselves though.  All it takes is an escort that is bsc and she could turn my world upside down.  Could probably do that anyway, but at least with a hobby phone she would have to put a little more effort into it.  Trying to see only well reviewed ladies also minimizes my risk.

PO won't allow you to store things in a PO box.  I have kept phones in tool boxes, in drawers at work, in the trunk of my personal vehicle in a box of odds & ends.

Funny stuff.  That reminds me of the Don Rickles joke.  "My wife said she wanted to go somewhere she'd never been for our anniversary.  I said how about the kitchen".

Im not sure what you do for work, but its where I store mine.  Im even paranoid about that so I stash it under the desk in the wire holder thing.  Unless you're looking for it you'd never see it.

Car: inside removeable seat headrest; under dash; behind glovebox; under seat between support wires; inside jack compartment

Can use the burner app as well, so you have one device with multiple phone numbers.  Crazy person starts bugging you, just ditch the number.  Can have as many or as few numbers as you want, and keep them as long as you want.  there's a usage fee though

when drawers are removed, tool boxes that's she'd never go in, emergency phone in your car (even an inactive phone can call 911),   Wood / lawn mower storage...  some guys use gym locker or gym bag...  but must fit YOUR real life style.  Some sporting goods that she doesn't like or share...    Your gun safe...  if she does not know the combination.   Do you have a drawer of old phones & chargers?  

where the edges of are not anchored down...  but the weight of the carpet keeps things from moving or rattling.  Autos are different but you can best explore yours.  
Mine is in a dusty corner or my workshop...  behind something.
