Thinking of making my own LoRa communication devices. This makes me very optimistic! Was not expecting that kind of range, especially through a dense city environment
I also plan on printing my own covers and cases for my devices once i decide on what to get. I want a base station one in my office, then i eant one for travel
Good video! I like the stress test point to point nicely done. Im new to all of this and have been researching the meshtastic. Question, can i transmit and will my info packet jump through multiple( other people's nodes) to my destination? Like a radio repeater? Or will it jump if other people have their nodes powered up and on line?
Yes that's the idea, if you live in a densely populated area, chances are there are other people with nodes powered up on the default settings and your message will be routed through them!
Great video, glad the design helped.
Thank you!! :)

I can't wait to see how the repeater performs!

Get you antenna up higher and outside some how and you will increase the range
I was wondering if you ever tested with a repeater node?
Hey! I'm actually building this now. Hope to start uploading videos again soon, that's the next video :)
Longest I gotten so far is 1.7mi
