V2 of my Repeater Node Build
(lemmy.nz)
Dual node Meshtastic and MeshCore. I think both networks have their benefits, and now I don't have to choose. We'll see how two nodes does in the winter. But right now a single solar panel is plenty to keep the battery constantly topped up.
Little update. Tried out this 2 dbi antenna tonight, and got probably about a 50% improvement in range. About 4500 feet before, to 1.25-1.5 mile depending on direction. So, definitely appreciate the suggestion!
Damn. I wonder how many poor sods like you and me buy the bigger antennas and never know.. ๐ It was pure luck for me that I decided to try both.
