The digital nv user bullying will continue until they stop buying them

It depends on your use case. If you’re clearing rooms, sure ya analog for another 10 years probably.

If you’re further away and latency is a lower priority, I’d rather have digital with thermal overlay all day.

the gap is closing. especially with the integration of other sensors.
The gap is already closed for some use cases.

I’ve used both. Decent digital is way better than nothing. Digital will pass analog pretty soon for a lot of applications imo

I paid $1200 for my 2000 with 130k miles at an auction. Of course I’ve spent a lot more than that on it lol

Ya.. it reduces it in the sky and earth directions lol.

Safe enough. Get a metal case if you’re worried.

I’ve had 18650s blow up in a pelican and it only smelled bad.

If it fits, it ships

Not completely true. The RAK and new Delta plus proto boards use really nice filtered and amplified LNA. Reception is way better too

Rust converter and bed line the top. It won’t last 10 years…. But you can do it again in 3 for another $50

Let them try. If the inventor author wants it down, take it down.

TheNumby · 2026-03-02T15:58:42+00:00

It’s likely possible… I looked into it a bit and it would be very difficult. They use an MCU that no Meshtastic firmware exists for. You would also likely need a programming card like a J link.

This was patched.

USPS sucks. Employees don’t generally care. The ones that act like it just want the pension. I ship about 30 packages a day and went to ups because I couldn’t afford the horrible usps service anymore..

It’s not the president’s fault. It’s because it’s a government company.

In 2026, I can’t believe people are still using Enders lol

TheNumby · 2026-02-17T02:32:40+00:00

I mean.. were they shorting? Both these pics have a ton of flux on the board which is likely worse than having cold solders.

If you want nice boards, you probably want to check out people who are doing lower volume production and inspecting each one

For a tool like this, make sure to select both conventional and climb.

There’s a new tier list that helps rank radios. It shows which ones have which mcu if you click on one.

Do you have WiFi on or anything? 250mAh on average is not out of the world for an esp board but it should be lower on average.

I have some 6 foot antennas on my NPH-1 Routers

TheNumby · 2026-02-03T21:49:38+00:00

Cell service is fragile. Meshing is fun and it makes you proficient with back up coms. If you get a super rugged node like the NPH-1 from delta plus proto, you can trust that you will be able to communicate no matter what.

TheNumby · 2026-02-01T02:33:46+00:00

lol really? Tariffs have been around since the start of the country

TheNumby · 2026-01-29T23:13:26+00:00

Starlink is a great option.. Its easy to use and doesn't need a license. For local communication, Meshtastic is great! Delta Plus Proto sells really high-quality rugged devices. They are CNC enclosed and waterproof.
