dude you could pass the technician's ham license with a couple hour's studying. it'd probably take you less than a day to learn the material for the general. I bet you know most of it already--you'd only have to learn the regulation-related stuff.

Thanks, but it’s the arbitrary frequency band allocations, esoteric procedures, and the lack of urgency edging me out for now. I just need to PhD this year, or really, ASAP.

The radios themselves are cheap, handheld, and I could learn a lot just by listening. That sounds like my jam. Soon!
