I have heard good things about the Quansheng UV-K5/8/99. Primarily because there is a hack firmware available. If you want a "good" HT as an introduction to the hobby, then the Yaesu FT-65R or older FT-60R are both good.

It's an interesting article, but the number of typos makes me wonder how rigorous it is. It also takes as an unstated given that we need or want to stabilize deficit/GDP or debt/GDP ratios. The US dollar is still a global res

I'm not so sure. I think it's really important to understand spectral colors and metamerism. If you start at the Bayer array, you are going to have an odd discussion about how the bayer filters have spectral transfer functions tha

I have heard that you can often do this at the IP address layer instead of the MAC layer. The trouble is that IP conflict detection may have to be disabled.

The difference is that many forums or chat programs will automatically linkify valid hostnames/URLs. Now "foo.zip" is a valid URL. You could have a forum or chat program that you think is quite safe, since it doesn't all

If the search domain list is empty or contains "." or "", or the search algorithm is flawed (maybe an IoT device), trying to connect might lead to a bare TLD lookup. CMD.exe is either a program accepts either a filename

You mean to say that the metrics are applied post-hoc. I.e. you reward last month's efficiency this month. Otherwise, you incentivize poor performance all the time, so that I can show massive improvement on this month's "effi

Same thing with ATSC 3.0. You can read the industry's claims as to why DRM is needed in broadcast (to ensure authenticity mainly), but you'll have to read between the lines that it's to make broadcast TV impossible to record,

I would bet against it. We haven't even built one of the key facilities to test the materials that we would hope to make a fusion reactor from. Once built, it will still take 20 years or so (as I recall) to come to some conclusions abo

Can Apple even respond to LE requests? Seems like a pretty solid reason to prefer AirTags over Tiles.

Turns out that manufacturing toys, consumer electronics, semiconductors, etc. is very important for future wars that use cheap drones instead of $2,000 155mm artillery shells. It's not clear that we predicted that shift, so it's a

If you don't get motion sickness from a simple flight simulator, I'd suggest that improving your skill so that the motions are smooth might be enough.

It's quite annoying that every stage of the lesson requires you to recalibrate your controller. When I learned to fly racing drones, I used Velocidrone; I have no experience of FPVSim. Even if you don't plan to eventually fly an a

You can also get custom fitted earplugs from an audiologist. They are wonderful. Extremely comfortable and they don't press on your ear canal, so you don't have any pain or hear your heartbeat, etc.
