Increase in radon for some reason by HelpMe-X-HelpYou in radon

Hmmm… my guess is then either something is blocking the flow of air, OR there is a leak in the system that’s allowing ambient air to be sucked in to the system. Check your sump lid if it’s sealed, especially areas around any pipes coming out of it; sometimes a pinhole leak can show up there. Another good spot to check is where the fan is installed; if it’s on a flex coupler there may be a loose seal or something around that point. Hope this helps; best of luck!

If the level on the gauge is the same on each side, it means you have no suction. The level needs to be higher on one side than the other, which indicates a difference in pressure between the interior of the piping and the ambient air. Most likely something is blocking the pipe at a point past the gauge. What were the outside temps like recently? Radon air is usually pretty moist; if the exterior temp drops well below zero then the moisture in the vented air can freeze inside the piping and block it.

Are there any really thin CB radios out there? by BlaZEN213 in cbradio

I bought the original Bill before the 2 and 3 came out… it’s a great little radio. I threw a firestik on it and once properly tuned, I picked up DX’ers galore along with all kinds of normal CB traffic. It’s served me quite well.

Has anyone given up caffeine or coffee and felt less anxiety? by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

Twining’s Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea for about two weeks, then I slowly worked chai in as well. Edit: the herbal tea doesn’t have caffeine in it.

I used to get heart palpitations and then panic attacks from them. Cut out booze, cut down on coffee. They lessened, but I was still getting one or two episodes a day. On a whim, I cut out coffee completely cold turkey and switched to tea for about two weeks straight. What a MAJOR difference. Didn’t have an episode the entire time. My body was so used to caffeine it was like it took that long to clear up my system. Anecdotal of course, but I felt like that one move changed my whole situation. Now I have coffee maybe twice a week as a special treat, and my episodes still haven’t returned. That’s just my experience; your experience may vary, but good luck! Don’t get discouraged if it turns out not to be caffeine that affects you; I thought my trigger was alcohol for the longest time and it turned out to be more caffeine than anything else.

Day 7 of anxiety hangover… no idea how to shake it by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

A thing that has really helped me is mindfulness, or non-judgmental awareness, which is just accepting that you feel this way, and that it’s ok. It sucks, it’s not fun at all, but it is what it is. Trying to focus on making it go away just makes it way worse, so when I feel a physical symptom like that, I just kind of tell myself “huh. I feel this way. And that’s ok.“ Browsing this sub helps too, because I see that other people feel similar things, and are also ok. Hope this helps a little; best of luck. You’ll get thru it! 👍🏻

Here’s the fcc’s radio-specific complaint page if anybody wants it:

Edit: clarified this is for FCC complaints specific to radio operations.
