 Bunch of mesh nodes in Vancouver 👀. I may set up a high gain antenna on my roof 
 DO IT ASAP PLEASE

Glad I have all mine. I communicate with my immediate family locally with them. Work great. Upgrading setup rn will post how I been using meshtastic for many months   
 Sounds like the way to go, I hope the antenna is so high that I can see it from Norway 📡 
 Will try to bounce it off the atmosphere https://i.nostr.build/nJ96NNkvMF6Nqny3.jpg  
 That’s a good start 📡🛰️ Think you need at least 3 more antennas to make it happen. 
 These used to be popular in parts of the world

I think some places in Germany and one in Melbourne, Australia at the very least.

Maybe you can rekindle the interest. 
 do it! 
 I get one on top of the ShangriLa if that helps.

 Sry typo.
* I can get (place) one on top of the ShangriLa... Not right on the top obvsly, but almost. Facing English Bay-ish with 180 arc. You want 70 or 90cm? (Will find/make a yagi with optimal gain). 
 Just remember a high gain antenna will change the propagation shape!
