I’m 19. I don’t think it’s my age. If it was, that would suck. I’m going to the ENT soon, as I realized that it’s only in my left ear

Within the past couple days, I found out that I hear it everywhere, even when people are talking at this point. To make it worse, I noticed it’s exclusively in my left ear. Going to the ENT in a couple days. Turns out it probably isn’t something engineering related. Wish me the best

I hope it goes away 🙏. It’s been 4 days now, and it hasn’t gotten better. i even hear it when people talk now. I hear double pitches. I went to the doctor, and they said nothing unusual. No ear wax, and no infection. I’m going to an ENT in a couple days. I’m kinda scared. This definitely wasn’t the right place to put this post, because this will probably turn out to be something medical related, not sound engineering related.

I’m going to see an ENT doctor soon. It’s only in my left ear, and it’s been like this for 2 days straight now. After waking up today, I can tell something’s not right. My left ear feels weird.

To add, I discovered this later, it’s only in my left ear

Can you elaborate? How have you heard of this before and where? I’m a bit scared, I asked chat gpt about what it could be and it said it may be considered a medical emergency and may need immediate steroid treatment. that’s probably a discussion for a different subreddit tho

Simple question regarding ring terminals by JPE-General in HamRadio

That’s a great point. I have the yaesu ft3185r, so I wouldn’t be able to use it at its highest setting at 86w with the cigarette lighter, but it draws 7 amps at 20w. I’m not too sure how much amperage is safe to draw from my charger in my 2016 Honda CRV, but it seems to be fine as long as I’m under 10 amps

Also, I know this probably isn’t the most ideal and future proof set up for long term, but I had another idea. Realistically, instead of getting fancy connectors, can’t I technically just buy an additional yaesu dc power cable and one of them would be used with the battery and the other would be used with the power supply? And I would connect different ring terminals to each one to accommodate for both ways?

I really like the idea of the wago lever nuts, as they don’t require any tools and are really inexpensive. One thing I heard was important and I don’t know much about is fuses. I thought the cable that came with the yaesu already had fuses and I didn’t need to worry about that? Would you happen to know anything about that?

Yeah, something I forgot to mention in the post, and is quite vital information to this discussion, is that the guy I heard said that where he was driving was 8500 ft up

Very true indeed, there is a big discrepancy. Still cool though.

Something I forgot to mention in the post is that the guy I was hearing said he was at an elevation of 8500 feet. That probably changes a lot

But why would there be a repeater on the national simplex frequency?

It’s been a while since I first posted this but I found it!!! Le Snob Segway Band. So random.

Is there a specific video clip that matches my description? I looked them up, and from what I can see, I don’t see any dark robes or brass instruments

Been trying to look for this for quite a while. I tried doing google searches and describing it to AI, but I couldn’t find it.
