@codinghorror @dgerard @frezik batteries are also on a tear and combined with solar/wind already had an LCOE of just about the same as nuclear in 2023. To the extent there is a case for nuclear, it’s undermined by how long it takes to spin up a reactor compared to the annual advances in scaling renewables and batteries.

@Sendpicsofsandwiches I already had it and use it for other purposes. That they accept a PO Box shows that the need for an address is a bit of an anachronism especially since they don’t even mail the paper license anymore

@Sendpicsofsandwiches @colinstu the dominant Ham demographic is one that has traditionally not needed to be concerned much about their information being publicized, and doesn’t see why anyone else should care. (I was reluctant to get licensed until I learned I could use a PO Box as the address.)
