Meshcore uses a Repeater & Companion Node setup where as Meshtastic is more peer to peer.

Here’s a quick video showing the concept I had in my head.

You have my attention… but with Meshcore and a repeater magnet mounted to the roof.

And nothing of value was gained.

Now we need a Cocaine Shark movie like we had Cocaine Bear!

I have never understood why the love for Discord. It’s just a chat service.

I miss 90’s era Trillian.

Yea, I’m aware of those from working in telephony but cannot justify a DAS in my house, for visitors, when T-Mobile has perfect signal for us all through the house as well as the woods behind my house.

It’s just easier to have people log in to my guest wifi ssid since modern smartphones have moved to SMS/Voice allowed to go over a data network that isn’t cellular.

This is almost my exact problem. I am at the bottom of the hill of my neighborhood with terrible signal. It’s bad enough that Verizon and AT&T mobile carriers do not get signal at my house. I had to spin up a guest wifi ssid for visitors to have access on their mobile phones.

I think when I tried the OTA antenna I get maybe 3 channels.

I just went through the annoying ass process of looking for my OTA antenna for my TV for the Super Bowl because you had to pay a subscription in order to watch it anywhere else and I figured that the OTA channels would at least have it on.

In the end, I gave up trying to find a live play of it and will eventually watch the highlight reels if I even care that much.

I probably threw the antenna away because as you said, no one watches antenna TV any more.

Banned for now…

Love the explanation. I’ve had a homelab for 20 years now and have never heard of FUTO. You’re explainer has made me bookmark the site now for future skimming.
