I don't know the answer to your question but figured I'd chime in with a comment. With murs and frs radios ... the radios are licensed so the operator doesn't need to be, but they're locked in to certain channels and power. Ham radios arent locked in to certain channels or powers because the operator is what's licensed and should know what freq to operate on. Most radios listed as "amateur radios" aren't locked to specific channels because they're meant for ham operators.

#75hard complete.
Outcome:
-22 lbs
-5% body fat
Read 6 books.
Feel better.
Inspired the kids to be more active.
And passed the wife's visual test ... She saw my before and after pics and said it looked like I didn't lose any muscle. So, that's a win!

Keep it up! I'm working on day 64 and wondering if I really want to stop ... It's become routine now. The kids are asking to go out for run/walks and I caught my middle kid riding the stationary bike while reading a book today. #75hard works for me.

Sorry you must put up with this because I like what I'm reading.
Meditations book two.
4. Remember how long you've been putting this off, how many extensions the gods gave you, and you didn't use them. At some point you have to recognize what world it is that you belong to; what power rules it and from what source you spring; that there is a limit to the time assigned you, and if you don't use it to free yourself it will be gone and will never return.
My thoughts ... The best time to free yourself was 10 years ago. The second best time is today. Start today!!

I started reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. Text from the Roman emperor.
Book 1. Lessons and Debts (lessons he's learned from people in his life)
1. Character and self-control
2. Integrity and manliness
3. Reverence for divine, generosity, do no wrong, and live a simple life
4. Avoid public school, hire good teachers and accept it as money well spent
Proof that good advice never gets old.

I did ultra runs and a couple duathlons up until a few years ago. This reminds me of aid stations along the way. I do miss it. I'll do more again someday but have other priorities right now. Rock on!

well, one week of #75hard down and 9.7 weeks to go.
After one week, I can say it's putting stress on my body but more than that it's made me prioritize my time. Made planning my day a routine instead of an occasional thing. It's forced some bad habits to the sidelines just due to time constraints. Sure I've lost a couple pounds but I can understand why it's described as more mental than physical.
Either way, if you're not actively moving towards your goals, you'll end up sliding away from them. So, active it is.

My favorite thing about nostr is that the feed isn't an endlessly scrolling repeat of the same content that I don't care about. It's only what I want to see in chronological order. I can scroll for 5 minutes and see everything new. Or, I can go check out new hashtags. So much better when you're in control. Getting zaps is the icing on the cake.

Last post in this thread. In my opinion the single most impactful thing you can do to make sure you create meaningful change in the world is to stick around long enough to do the required things. You can't help others until you help yourself. Grow your own physical and mental toughness so that you're able to live the life you want, on your terms, and leave behind the change you want to see for the future generations.

"What we leave behind" I break up into three categories. 1) physical things 2) ideas 3) genetics/procreation. For example ... I make things to give to my kids and teach them the value of hard work. Knocks out three birds with one stone.

I planted 10 trees this past weekend. 5 red oak and 5 redbuds. Nothing fancy, just whatever they had at the county ag tree sale. A little compost and some water to help them along. I've been planting trees almost every year. Sometimes one or two, sometimes 100. Slow and steady wins this race.
