Some results from a week of there being a meshcore repeater on Cougar mountain.

A lot of us can now hear around 80 radios throughout the Seattle / Tacoma region.

The public chat channel is extremely busy at various times throughout the day.

I've been able to DM people in Tacoma and connect to their chat servers all the way from Seattle.

Some routes are extremely stable, meanwhile others are more flaky. It's super exciting!

Meshcore is working well enough in Seattle that now adoption is the largest issue to having a more robust LoRa mesh network.

So if you're in the PNW area and want to build a solid handheld LoRa radio to try out meshcore I've made a bill of materials for my go to portable build LoRa plans.

Testing routes from central Seattle down to Tacoma is shockingly stable.
