Anyone play around with either?Â
I've had meshtastic previously and that seemed to work pretty well, albeit I'm in an area which doesn't have much activity.
I've recently re-flashed a t-1000e onto meshcore and find it a fair bit more stable in terms of holding connections to the app etc. There's still not loads of activity in my immediate area so the next step is to knock up a solar repeater, put it up high somewhere and fill in a black spot sitting between several other repeaters.
I'm not convinced it's as potentially useful as some proclaim but it's interesting to piss about with, particularly for outdoorsy stuff.
If anyone wants to have a go I've got 3 meshtastic nodes going spare albeit they're on the 443mhz rather than the more commonly used 868mhz. They'll be ok for a small, self-contained mesh but there's not going to be much activity beyond that group of devices. They are a bit homemade though, in fact they are home made, one has been on fire at least once but seems pretty stable now... Just let me know and I'll post them out for - batteries very much not included!
