Chicagoland · 70 cm LoRa mesh
Building a MeshCom network
across Chicagoland
MeshCom is an amateur-radio LoRa mesh network for text messages, positions and telemetry. Small, low-power nodes relay each other's traffic, with no internet or cell service needed. We're documenting every step of bringing it to the Chicago area.
This page is changing fast! We're learning as we go, testing different solutions, and experimenting along the way. New experiences and ideas come up almost every day, so we're continuously updating the information published here.
Everything described in our Guidelines should be considered a proposal for now and a starting point for discussion. If you have ideas, suggestions, or think something should be done differently, we'd love to hear from you: [email protected].
Check back often – this project is evolving, and some of our best ideas are still ahead of us!
