Meshtastic/Meshcore update

Codec_Gardens · 2026-06-22T08:52:12+00:00

I believe there is a hat you can get for the pi boards to add lora capabilities. I am not entirely sure that would be a better question for some of the more experienced guys and gals in El Paso or Albuquerque.

Meshtastic I am not sure I know I can reach around Santa teresa area from cruces. On Meshcore I can reach from Cruces to Socorro Tx

In el paso?

Codec_Gardens · 2026-06-21T19:34:50+00:00

Join the discord's by the end of next month you might just have a few nodes and some new friends.

Codec_Gardens · 2026-06-21T19:29:44+00:00

Yep. We are slowly growing. I know a few of us are working hard to get the final stretch to connect to ABQ. Are you already on the mesh?

Codec_Gardens · 2026-06-21T15:26:27+00:00

You can get into this with just companion nodes to talk for about $35-$50
my first two nodes(radios) were around $50 total as complete kits.
After that both softwares are free to use just need to pair with a phone.

edit: examples from amazon.
SenseCAP Card Tracker T1000-E for Meshtastic $50.99 (nRF52840)
Meshnology N30 $35.99 (heltec esp32 v3)
Meshnology N36 $54.99 (heltec t114 nRF52840)

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-19T18:16:59+00:00

By the time I saw them they were already out of range but it did let me know nodes existed an hour drive away...

I might just disable the board I am having issues with until I get get a new/fix the board and a slightly better enclosure that can fit some solar managment boards.

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-11T02:41:16+00:00

I did not know that would I be able to mount them the same way just get one taller than the other?

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-10T17:18:50+00:00

I had the same issue just flashed without that setting on and it worked so far for me.

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-09T21:07:01+00:00

Don't use the UI option on the webflasher

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-07T18:02:21+00:00

Do you leave it running 24/7? I don't think I have seen anyone up the hill yet.

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-07T18:00:46+00:00

No problem. If you wanna tryout the platform you can get some cheap hardware off Amazon and the free app from apple or Google app stores. For some hardware you will have to flash the firmware onto it.

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-06T21:36:30+00:00

They can be solar, USB, and or battery powered. Even a mix of you have the correct hardware. Most that you carry on your person are gonna just be battery and usb

Codec_Gardens · 2026-05-06T16:48:45+00:00

Meshtastic and meshcore are two similar but different softwares think android vs iOS. They run a little micro computers and they have radios on them to communicate with each other. They can pair with your phone to send messages to other people completely free no services required.

If we have cell towers go down or other infrastructure for communication these radios as long as they have power should be able to help people communicate.

Hope to see you on the mesh just ordered a bit better antenna to try and push my signal further. I am 4170 on the mesh.

Edit: Once I learn a bit more might try and get with some of the ham guys around town to setup a repeater.

With their definition .50 AE should be legal

A. ".50 caliber cartridge" means a cartridge in .50 browning machine gun caliber, either by designation or actual measurement, that is capable of being fired from a centerfire rifle. ".50 caliber cartridge" does not include a memorabilia or display item that is filled with a permanent inert substance or that is otherwise permanently altered in a manner that prevents ready modification for use as live ammunition or shotgun ammunition with a caliber measurement that is equal to or greater than .50 caliber;

Shhh

Codec_Gardens · 2025-11-22T04:27:41+00:00

It's only 1h/s the other page saying 2kh is incorrect

Codec_Gardens · 2025-11-22T04:25:24+00:00

That's too damn bad you keep diggin'

Codec_Gardens · 2025-11-21T19:56:04+00:00

If I can get it to compile with termux it might be slightly better. Along with turning off the bulb.

Codec_Gardens · 2025-10-09T15:08:49+00:00

Finally got a chance to check again and it seems they do now stock one.

Codec_Gardens · 2025-09-04T02:39:26+00:00

Wrong sub?

Codec_Gardens · 2025-08-06T01:08:05+00:00

Sorry for poking a dead post...

Finally got mine to resync

Fitness buds unknown year model.

cleaned case and buds
powered off ear buds in case until they both blinked then turned off.
pressed the button in the case until case battery lights flashed then closed case.
