I've gotten really into MeshCore with my local mesh and radio nerds. We have a network that is able to send messages over 300 miles away.

yeah, i live in a hole with no one owning anything higher than our houses. Neighbors have no interest. I have no LOS to anything but them.

Really want to get to the kids school which is less than a mile, but RLOS is a no-go. two people own high ground in the middle.

No water towers, just power company and cell phone and those are two placed i don't wish to fuck with.

I had to spend months getting approval to stick a repeater node up at the local HOA park that I'm not a member of, but now I can get out much easier than the hole that my house is also in.
