Have you considered the potential of use something like Zerosync to compress the data first? There are tradeoffs involved, it could be used to sync nodes up.

The official software program that does decoding and encoding of audio may or may not be floating around on the internet. I am not going to get bent out of shape if I can use existing equipment and do everything I want with it.

zero sum game capitalism inherently leads to predatory behavior. simple cooperative free markets do not.

1. No, but I have a GMRS license 2. Maybe next year, too many projects, not enough fiat 3. MOAR any radio content 4. No, but it’s on the long list of projects 5. I’m interested in radios connecting to the internet and becoming global, but I’m sure there’s already plenty of information on that. Either way, I’m not there yet. 6. Happy to see radio talk on Nostr, followed.

Thanks for your posts.🙏😃💜😆👍💯 1) No. 2) Maybe, but I have practical and ideological concerns about licensing. 3) Tech to democratize the internet at all levels. The m17 project looks awesome. 4) No, but def on my list. 5) Radio relays for nostr content. 6) I'm concerned about privacy prohibitions that come with licensing. Not up on current "laws," but my understanding has been that encrypted comm is prohibited...
