374 sats \ 7 replies \ @OT 21 Oct \ on: Setting Up My First Meshtastic Radio bitcoin
meshtastic is on my near term to-do list.
As I'm semi remote I'm hoping there will be some other users to connect with.
From where you are, is there a business within sight?
From where you are, is there a neighbor in sight?
If business is in sight, ask the business if you can install a radio on their roof that will require almost no maintenance. Give them a number of once a year (you probably won't need to go up there once a year, but its a good expectation just in case)
Set up a solar charged + battery meshtastic radio in client router mode up there.
If neighbor is within sight, talk your neighbor. Be neighborly. Talk about if there was a natural disaster would you have each other's backs. Then get them into meshtastic so you can communicate in adverse circumstances.

lol no need to ask to get on your neighbors roof if you get your neighbors into it, they'll get on their own roof.

Isn't 20 km a bit too far?

It might be, but it might not be. They're going to need some really tall antennas for sure.
