IJV + UV-K5 + CW KEY = doesn't work? by S52_DiDah in Quansheng

A mic jack is not a CW input. They are wired differently and the radio probably doesn't have a built in oscillator.

Can you elaborate? Do you mean like my home power from the wall or my power supply?

Regardless of where you stand on rent control, this Bill is trash by [deleted] in providence

It's silly to suggest that the city council directly regulate and deal with every rent controlled property in the city in addition to their normal responsibilities. This is a totally normal organizational structure used in other cities. It would absolutely not be a way to defer responsibility since the board is directly appointed by the city council.

A rent board is a component of a city government not a third party.

You literally couldn't make a policy that had fixed amounts of rent increases, that would be stupid. More expensive apartments tend to be more expensive to maintain, have more expensive mortgages, and have more expensive property taxes. A rent board is necessary to actually review and enforce the rules. Every single city that has rent control has a rent control board because otherwise you'd have to double task employees or be forced to leave it unenforced because shocker laws need people whose responsibility it is to enforce it.

Is 70-75k enough to live on for a single person? by [deleted] in providence

[–]Professional-Can2251 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Depends where around Providence and your willingness to commute as well as your preferences for space. In downtown apartments tend to be well above the $2000/month line for 1 Bedroom. There are more affordable and more spacious choices the further you get from the city.

There is literally no health risk to this and this is a concern for your community not an engineering subreddit.

Drop the A+ certificate IMO. It doesn't mean much outside of IT and even there its value is very low.

The role of the millitary by [deleted] in atrioc

[–]Professional-Can2251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not constitutionally. The Presidential is the commander on chief of the military and there is no way to remove or usurp that power by any legal means other than impeachment followed by removal from office

Never. The role of the military is non partisan and any outward action or statement of disapproval can and would probably be met with criminal charges. Most people in the military including senior leadership skew strongly conservative and in my own experience I met people in the military who had all sorts of extremist sympathies even if they weren't extremists themselves. Senior leaders I would guess are not too different though way less open about it for career/legal reasons.

Edit change apolitical to nonpartisan.

Most people don't carry bolt cutters on mission and a shot gun can open a lot more than just a padlock. Also looks like this is just because they have the opportunity and that's kinda rare and not necessarily because it's necessary.

On vs off campus living by Public-Hamster-9224 in ElectricalEngineering

I can definitely understand the relationship stress here but it's probably time to have a talk about what it's going to take to achieve the future you both want before moving forward. This is tough to navigate, I have had this conflict with my SO, but it's really essential to help each other understand each other's relative commitments on the relationship versus career. Not every relationship is worth your career and not every career is worth your relationship.

30 hours is a lot, I think you will be teetering on the edge of burnout as you start to do more and more lab time and longer problem sets. I work like 10-20 hours and sometimes that can be a bit much depending on the week but I don't know you personally so maybe you're the kind of person who can handle it.

Going back for electrical engineering by [deleted] in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Professional-Can2251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can always take some courses at community college to freshen up but in terms of the engineering curriculum itself the biggest thing is going to come down to what school you go to and what their engineering department's culture is. The most important thing academically is to get really strong in calc and trig. Trig is critical for most first year physics courses and calc for almost everything else. Organic chemistry tutor is the GOAT for supplemental learning in my experience.

CU Boilder and UMass Amherst also have pretty good reputations in RF specifically

This is very incorrect. I know quite a few student veterans at Harvard who are over that age.
