Seems like I member this fella was doing some radio stuff a while back nostr:npub1dqepr0g4t3ahvnjtnxazvws4rkqjpxl854n29wcew8wph0fmw90qlsmmgt
nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m I’m interested in getting nostr working through a radio network. I don’t know the design yet, just the goals.
Do you know anyone else working on this?

i did some work with broadcasting nostr events over lora mesh networks. it works as an experiment but isn't practical.
the size of the data packets needed for Nostr events is too large for nice behaviour on LoRa. I've not tried with other frequencies but I expect similar issues.
There are workarounds I've thought about like using a nip46 signer to reduce data size, or having a single gateway that constructs and signs all messages.
There's something in it but needs more investigation.
