I played with my new #meshtastic radios I bought from
AVERAGE_GARY (npub160t…yjc9)today.
I learned how to connect my phone to a radio and how to set up some basic configuration settings on the radio.
I couldn’t see anyone else while I was sitting inside my house. So I carried a second radio up the hill, about 400 yards away, to increase line of sight to other radios and have a direct line site to my house.
Sitting in my living room I now can see 21 contacts as far as 30 miles away. All in all I have spent 2-3 hours of self teaching and experimenting from YouTube videos on this project. Meshtastic is so easy, I highly recommended it to anyone wanting to learn basic radio and secure communication.
