    If I recall correctly, you can, but it removes your node from the public networks everyone else is using because hams cannot use encryption for coms as part of the rules for ham operation, as the non ham network is encrypted by default. You would have to build a secondary network independent of the public node list.

    Correct me if I’m wrong. But that was my understanding of the difference.

      You’re probably right. I noticed the feature, but haven’t personally tried it.
