    We got tired of meshtastic so we build some with Wi-Fi HaLow and other Wifi stuff.

    Meshtastic/core are ok as a hobby, but after doing it for a good number of years, im just tired of the downtime, strange issues with heltek and the very small amount you can actually send.

    Its fun and we have got a number of houses set up. Its not too hard in our area.

      What’s the range like with halow? I’ve been eyeing it off for a while. Seems like a nice high gain omni and a bit of height would make it go a fair way.
