  • It starts off as a "cheap" hobby, then you look a year later and you are buried in devices.

  • The only issue you may have with the 1W is that they will be able to send to nodes that will probably not be able to contact you back. Because they are lower power.

    So while you may be able to send really well, receiving may be a bit more difficult.

    Ive heard of people saying that the 1W will muddy up the radio space since its basically one node "screaming" over others. Im not 100% buying it as 1W is still pretty quiet compared to other electronics in other spectrum. But thought I would mention it.

  • I usually direct people over to helteks because they are cheap and you can get 2 of them in the same box. For more info you can check out the official meshtastic site.

    Or check out https://rootaccess.org/wiki/Meshtastic/rev447/#-quickstart

    If you go with the defaults at least at first, you can see if its something you want to invest your time into. Worst case, you have a couple of these things you can give out to a couple of ham friends. You can go pretty deep with the hobby, but its fun (in my opinion).

  • Im not familiar with what it does. I just saw a 15/15 and 15 1/1s. What does Annihilator do?

  • Whats even better is that the squirrel can stop it from attacking for at least 15 turns.

    Im just imagining something like Cthulhu coming out about to destroy the word and a squirrel hurls itself at it....and now it has to wait another year for another go.

  • Do you have solar setup or is it direct connect within the house?

  • I hope at some point, both will do interop. Its causing a bit of a splintering of the community...which really doesnt need to happen (mostly on discord and reddit from what I have been seeing). We are so small to begin with. And its not the devs doing it, it seems to be the community themselves. Which is again unfortunate.

  • Its like a worse pager system. But it does not use the internet. It makes it look like texting on apps.

  • So im not seeing the option for "Automatically follow platforms of a public index" after federation.

    I believe(?) I found it under Settings->Configuration->Basic:

    Automatically follow instances of a public index⚠️ This functionality requires a lot of attention and extra moderation.See the documentation for more information about the expected URL

    Im going to replace the main https://instances.joinpeertube.org/ with your index and see what happens.
