1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but
2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but
3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So

Maybe too niche but is there a way to program a Baofeng to communicate on a C4FM repeater network? Or do I just need to bite the bullet and pay $200 for a Yaesu handheld #hamradio #baofeng #yaesu #c4fm #amateurradio
