HUGE UPDATE!!

We just established a Meshtastic repeater on top of Big Bald Mountain on the border of North Carolina and Tennessee.

We had a @Starlink Mini in our pack and maintained connectivity the entire time. Big shout out to Elon Musk.

The really amazing thing was the 194 nodes we have connected from Raleigh, to Knoxville, to Charlotte, to Greenville and all the way down to Atlanta!!

The Freedom Tech Revolution is hitting another gear.

Line of sight comms can be a bear when you’re in the ‘holler’ but hot dang if you can get a transmission site up on high ground!


Is there any way to make that a permanent tower? How long will they allow you to leave this one up there?

Also, what kind of bandwidth/throughput are users seeing on that mesh through your starlink? Anything faster than emails/texts?


Amazing job guys!! Great tune too

It will stay until it gets taken down. Our guess is someone from the Forest Service is going to remove it. It’s on a marker for the Appalachian Trail at the top of a mountain. No permission was given. We’re just did it to establish communications in an area extremely lacking in communications right now.

Meshtastic works over radio waves. The Starlink was there for:
1. Alternate means of comms in an area with little to no cell coverage.
2. Test its capabilities while moving on foot.


Bingo!


Start talking about it and tell people how it’s being used to help in North Carolina and would be even better if the network was already established.

Helps that the devices are extremely cheap.
