#Meshtastic Coverage Estimator

This is insanely useful! I just found it deep in the github repos for meshtastic

and have some serious goals for the region. If I can manage to get a HUGE node on top of Mt. Spokane it would cover a 100 mile radius. Is that kind of hardware even available to handle potentially thousands of connections?

Sweet!

I have a mesh node with store and repeat on long range that my local ham club runs near me. It's at about 7900ft, top of a mountain. I can usually hit it from 50 miles plus. No idea what hardware it has. Never looked.

I'd be very curious to know. There is a very light awareness in the local ham groups of mesh but I want to get that to be a strong awareness and push to build

Older hams don't like it.

The ft8 guys is where I would start.
