Foundations of Amateur Radio The other day I was stuck in traffic behind a vehicle proudly proclaiming that it was "electric". I'd seen the model before, just never connected it with being available as an EV. I wondered how many other cars on the road turned out to have added an "electric" option to their line-up and how that evolution had just quietly, inexorably occurred. It started me thinking about the nature of the driving experience and what it would be like for someone who has never seen a petrol, or other fossil fuel burning vehicle, and what driver education might do to incorporate that. In my teens I first sat on a hotted up moped belonging to a friend, I was old enough to be legal, whilst he wasn't, so I got to ride his bike to school with him on the back, win-win for both. Later on, I learned to drive a car with a manual gearbox and as interest took me, I learned to drive a double clutch gearbox and got my heavy rigid truck license. I also learned to fly a plane, but that's besides the point. Stuck in rush-hour traffic, such as it is in Perth, it made me think about amateur radio licensing and education. Specifically, how do we incorporate change? When I was first licensed, my education included consideration for analogue television interference, including pictures of different screen patterns, their causes and remedies. Three years after I got licensed, almost to the day, the last analogue television transmitter in Australia was switched off on 10 December 2013, 57 years after the first transmissions started. While I retain little, if any, of the now, let's call it, esoteric information associated with that, it made me consider a wider picture in relation to the process of amateur radio education. New amateurs today are unlikely to be asked about analogue television interference, let alone be subjected to questions in their exam. Fair enough, information changes, evolves, becomes superseded or expires, and as a side-effect, I have some brain cells dedicated to analogue television, PAL, 625 lines total, 576 visible, horizontal and vertical synchronisation, white noise, you get the idea. As an aside, 78 on a turntable indicates a speed reserved for shellac records until the 1950s, seeing that we're dropping arcane knowledge. Oh, means NOP on a 6502, in case you're wondering. Although I don't have a specific list of what is currently being taught .. more on that in a moment .. I daresay that newly minted amateurs have a curriculum that has evolved with technology and legal requirements over the past 15 years. A tangible example is the fact that the Foundation Class in Australia is now permitted to use digital modes, something that changed after I was licensed, when on 21 September 2019, the regulator amended the Amateur License Conditions Determination, known locally as the LCD, with immediate effect. The point being that over time things change and education changes with it. This is all as expected. Here's my question. What about the rest of the community? What happens to someone who has been licensed for a decade, a generation, or more? Are they expected to gain these skills by osmosis or self-education? Should this process be dictated by the regulator, or should this be a community effort to bring everyone into the same decade? Should we revise how we educate our amateurs and make the education skill-set technology agnostic, should we be less prescriptive with the license, or should it achieve something else? One example in this space is an initiative called the Ham Challenge, which you can discover at hamchallenge.org. In case it sounds vaguely familiar, I've talked about this before. It's a list of 52 activities that you can take on to broaden your horizons and explore different aspects of our hobby. In its first year, I'm looking forward to seeing how it evolves. Is this the kind of self-training that we might encourage, or is there another way to achieve this? Is this something that occurs elsewhere in society and if so, how has that been addressed? I know for example in ICT there are endless certification courses, which I have to confess are in my professional opinion absolutely counterproductive, serving only to entrench vendor lock-in, not something that I think benefits the amateur community. I mentioned curriculum a moment ago. Another approach is to attend a licensing course and participate as part of your own self-education. Of course this will require cooperation from the educators, and we'd need to come up with some idea of how this might be useful. Is this something that benefits from attendance every five years, every decade, more, less? As a bonus side-effect, it will introduce new amateurs to old ones, and vice versa, perhaps facilitating a new resurgence of Elmering, or mentorship, that previously has been the hallmark of our community. Over the decade and a half or so that I've been licensed and writing weekly articles about the hobby and our community, I've made a conscious effort to keep up to date, to learn new skills, to share what I've learnt, to actively explore what I need to learn more about and to share that journey with you. I realise that this is not a universal experience. For some their amateur license sits in a drawer gathering dust together with their first aid certificate and their first runner-up prize for something that for a minute and a half caught their attention years ago. For most of us the reality lies somewhere in between. For many, the amateur experience is one of playing on air and getting delight from the doing and participating. There are those who go out and become teachers, those who sit on boards, those who run clubs and those who get on the local repeater once a week. It takes all of us to make this community and my thoughts are not intended to stop that enjoyment and experience. I'm trying to discover how we build a resilient community, one that is sustainable in a world of continuous and rapid change. I'm Onno VK6FLAB
In dieser Folge trifft Nele auf Chris vom Team Street Dogs, den Zoe – ihres Zeichens neugieriger CamperStyle-Hund – zufällig auf der Touristik & Caravaning Leipzig „erschnüffelt“ hat. Ein Glücksfall, denn Chris verbindet 25 Jahre Hundetraining mit Vanlife und hat ein ganz besonderes Konzept für Messebesucher:innen und ihre Vierbeiner entwickelt: eine Mischung aus Hunde-Lounge, Suchspielen und echter Entspannung im Messetrubel. Außerdem geht es um Mantrailing, die Frage, welche Hunde dafür geeignet sind, wie man als Anfänger:in einsteigt und warum die gemeinsame Sucharbeit so gut für Bindung, Selbstvertrauen und Angstabbau ist.

Welcome to Episode #514 - Today we are discussing Turning your hobby into a business.
Somewhere along the way, we stopped having hobbies… and honestly, it's making us depressed.

We're disconnected from ourselves, our creativity, and from each other.It's time to rekindle our sense of play and curiosity. So in today's episode, we're breaking down why hobbies are essential for your happiness, confidence, and emotional well-being, and how finding a hobby you love can reduce loneliness, boost your mood, increase creativity, and bring FUN back into your life. Because your whole personality shouldn't be work and TikTok.If you've been feeling disconnected, bored, or stuck in autopilot, tune in to learn how hobbies can help energize you and break up the monotony of adulthood.In this episode, we cover:• Why adults have lost the joy of hobbies • The science: how hobbies act as a natural antidepressant and reduce anxiety, burnout & loneliness• Why hobbies boost self-esteem and confidence• The link between popular hobbies and nervous system regulation• Why “wasting time” is actually good for your brain• How to choose a hobby based on what you loved as a kid• The ultimate list of hobbies for every style of activity• The difference between Type 1 fun vs. Type 2 fun• How hobbies help you connect with friends & build communityHobby Ideas Mentioned in This Episode:Tennis, pickleball, hiking, gardening, rock climbing, weightlifting, walking clubs, horseback riding, volunteering with animals.Pottery, calligraphy, painting/drawing, photography, crocheting, collaging, baking, singing and choirs, learning an instrument.Cold plunging, meditation, yoga, reading + book clubs, puzzles, Mahjong, chess, learning a new language, deep-diving a niche interest for fun.For advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Sports Cards Live 289 keeps rolling as Jeremy, Leighton, and Dan mix vintage story time with some uncomfortable questions about how our comp driven hobby really works. Leighton shares a new prewar pickup with a great family backstory, Jeremy shows off a low grade vintage grail that punches way above the label, and Dan comes in hot with ideas on what needs to change at the auction house level if collectors are going to trust comps again. In this segment of Sports Cards Live 289, we touch on: • A rare prewar pickup Leighton chased to Nashville, including why its regional roots and family history make it more than just another group of old cards • Jeremy's latest vintage hockey addition that tests how far you are willing to bend on grade when centering, color, and overall presence are all there • The challenge of valuing cards that almost never trade publicly, and what it looks like to price and buy in a world where the usual comp tools are not much help • Dan's case for stronger transparency from auction houses, from bidder vetting to what we should really be able to see when we place a bid • How secret reserves, house bidding, and inflated bid counts can quietly shape prices and collector behavior far beyond a single auction • The tension between fighting the good fight on shill bidding and still keeping enough joy in the hobby to enjoy shows, trades, and collecting with friends Your comments and questions drive the show, so jump in live or in the replay chat and let us know where you stand on rare regional issues, low grade stunners, and what you expect from auction houses going forward.

If you've ever hesitated when someone asks what you do for fun, you're not alone. So many of us get caught up in work and life that we forget what it even feels like to have something we do purely because we enjoy it. But as busy professional women juggling all of the things, having something just for us is actually really important. In this episode, we're unpacking what hobbies really look like for adult women, how they can bring more joy and meaning into your day-to-day life, and how to actually fit them into a busy lifestyle. Because sometimes what we're really craving isn't a break or extra hours in the week, but a little space to do something that's ours. → WHAT'S YOUR TRAVEL STYLE?

Worum geht's: Im Format Ausgefragt! beantworten die Podcaster Fabian, Chris und Gunnar (plus Rahel und Henner) Fragen der Hörer. Die sind in der Regel so ausgewählt, dass die Antworten nicht nur „Ja“, „Nein“ oder „Wurscht“ lauten können, sondern idealerweise ein bisschen was Persönliches preisgeben. Wir danken allen, die Fragen eingesendet haben! Ausgefragt! gehört zu unseren festen Formaten – es erscheint halbjährlich. Wer eine Frage hat, schickt die bitte einfach per Mail an fabian AT stayforever PUNKT de; Fabian sammelt die dann für die nächste Folge im Frühjahr. Bitte keine Fragen zum Podcast an sich oder zu geplanten Folgen. Dies sind die Fragen von dieser Folge: Frage 1, gestellt von: Uwe Große AAA-Spiele scheinen mir aktuell wahlweise storygetriebene Action-RPGs mit Shooter-Mechaniken, rollenspielähnliche Action-Adventures mit starken Story-Elementen oder Looter-Shooter mit Puzzle-Elementen zu sein. Genres verschwimmen, zumindest bei teuren Produktionen. Das letzte Genre, das neu “erfunden” wurde, sind Souls-Likes, wobei auch die vielleicht eher Mechanik als Genre sind. Sind die Möglichkeiten des Mediums ausgeschöpft oder schon alle bekannt? Erwartet ihr noch richtig Neues in den kommenden Jahren? – Frage 2, gestellt von: Anna Habt ihr noch Kontakt zu euren Spielefreunden von “damals” (Marco, Rollenspielgruppen, Hotseat-Partner bei M.U.L.E. etc.)? Hören diese vielleicht sogar Stay Forever und freuen sich über Erwähnungen – oder ist das alles eingeschlafen? – Frage 3, gestellt von: Andreas Gab es bei euch DEN einen Moment (bzw. die Momente), wo euch bewusst geworden ist, dass ihr biologisch offiziell alt seid? Ich schieb zum Beispiel immer meine Brille nach oben, wenn ich Nachrichten auf dem Smartphone lese. Wie geht ihr mit dem Thema “Altern” um? Vermeidet ihr das konsequent? Oder macht ihr euch Gedanken wegen Vorsorge, sowohl medizinisch als auch finanziell? – Frage 4, gestellt von: Marius Ich hab es schon öfter erlebt, dass Mechaniken aus Spielen, die ich gerade spiele, mich in der echten Welt triggern und Handlungsimpulse erzeugen, denen ich widerstehen muss. Zum Beispiel wollte ich zu Zeiten von Black and White gerne echte Bäume ausreißen und über einem Sägewerk abwerfen. Und als ich viel Max Payne spielte, wollte ich in jedem Badezimmerschrank Painkiller suchen. Ist euch das auch mal passiert? – Frage 5, gestellt von: Andreas Die meisten von uns kennen das Vorurteil: “Wer sein Hobby zum Beruf macht, hat ein Hobby weniger.” Ich für meinen Teil habe Respekt – um nicht zu sagen: Angst – davor, dass mir ein liebgewonnenes Hobby durch negative Erfahrungen vergällt wird, wenn aus diesem Hobby mein Beruf würde. Wie geht es euch damit? Gibt es für euch nicht auch Tage, an denen ihr von Videospielen und der damit zusammenhängenden Industrie die Nase voll habt? – Frage 6, gestellt von: Patrick Wie geht ihr mit Spiele-Themen und -Inhalten um, die euch physisch oder psychisch belasten? Generell könnt ihr euch ja aussuchen, ob und wer welches Spiel behandelt. Ich denke da an Gunnars Aussage, dass er keine Jumpscares mag und sehr schreckhaft ist. Da er bei Folgen zu Resident Evil dabei war, stelle ich mir das Spielen schwierig vor. Die anderen haben da bestimmt auch Beispiele. Also was sind für euch problematische Inhalte oder “Hürden” beim Spielen? – Frage 7, gestellt von: Daniel Ihr seid gestresst, überfordert oder anderweitig unzufrieden mit einer Situation. Wohin würdet Ihr euch am liebsten zurückziehen, um abzuschalten und zu regenerieren? – Frage 8, gestellt von: Tobias Gibt es Spiele, die ihr vor allem wegen deren Minigames mochtet? Wo diese euch vielleicht sogar besser gefallen haben als das Hauptspiel? – Frage 9, gestellt von: Raffael Wenn ihr zurück in eure Jugend oder Kindheit reisen und eurem jüngeren Ich einen Rat oder eine Erkenntnis mit auf den Weg geben könntet, was wäre das? Also was hättet ihr rückblickend gerne schon damals gewusst oder verstanden?
