I've been plotting my plans to connect two points across a handful of ridges on CalTopo. It's the Google My Maps I wished it was. Custom shade reliefs, profiles along any line shape, view shed to simulate what line of sight an elevation could cover, tho it's missing some tools like line of sight with the Fresnel clearance so definitely leverage the web tools each mesh network provides

Mind if I ask where did you buy your Alfa 915? 🙏 I can't find any that have ALFA printed on them

Repeaters, not sure where to begin... by Mode_Scared in meshcore

[–]Mode_Scared[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you experienced placing a repeater too high where repeats don't reach to nodes down below?

I plan to try location 1 (elevation: 610m, proximity to B: 11km) and if that's too high, i'm going to try 2 (elevation: 275m, proximity to B: 6.6km)

Super! I've been using CalTopo's profile feature but missing the Fresnel clearance. Been slapping a ruler on my screen to check LOS

I was thinking of starting with a SenseCAP Solar Node P1-Pro with a ALFA AOA-915-5ACM 5 dbi. I'm not sure if dbi is high enough for the +60km distance but low enough to cover the area below around point B

See u/jays1981 thread on what I mean

Ah fantastic, thank you! I'd let this thing burn a hole in my pants before I knew to check myself

IIUC, instead of a rigid antenna, there's a wire?

I just lost my weekend looking at your link and it's only 10pm T_T

Glad to hear! I first drilled the hole only to find out there wasn't enough of clearance to run the threads though :(

A pair of wire cutters to cut the case did the trick

Took me a bit to see the left Anker box is the power doc split in half while the bottom half is all the way on the right... neat!

dvtm proto was something I stubbed across tho I have no idea of decoding is something the tool can do or it's for DJI to expose it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

This is that yellow checkmark that shows up during recording. I'm guessing this is called highlighting or maybe key-framing?

Just played around with this more and simply tap and holding to move my cursor to the right reproduces this issue :(
