Interesting discussion.  With respect to what a ham should or should not know about technical stuff let me say this. I spent 30 years in various positions at Hughes Aircraft Company. (https://www.hughesscgheritage.com/hughes-aircraft-history-1932-1986-transcribed-by-faith-macpherson/) *

We had experts on everything, however, none one of them knew everything.  There was a saying: "Somewhere at Hughes Aircraft there is a guy who can solve your problem.  Your job is to find him."

Forums such as this one are where we find the guy we need.  There should be no shame for looking for him.

* If you explore this document, you can find the name Dave Evans. Dave was a ham and the "Around-the-world-flight" network used 7.000 and 14.000 MHz.  Ham radio helped start the company and it started my career at the company.
