In this episode host, Dexter and Trent, introduce and discuss mesh networks, LORA devices, and some of the implications of “OFF” grid comms. Mesh networks are a system of series of nodes connected through radio waves to create a decentralized network, each node acts like a repeaters increasing possible range and reliability of transmissions. These devices vary from DIY to Military grade, coupled with software like Meshtastic and Meshcore create a communication network in case of disaster or for local messaging in areas with poor cell coverage. They can even be used with applications like ATAK. Per usual we chase some rabbits and at one point talk about drug overdose somehow… This is not my last episode on this topic and in the future I hope to be a little bit more versed since I am now playing with these devices daily.

I highly recommend getting these devices if you have kids. They are fun to build together and it gives the kids a way to have a device in their hands that is not connected to the internet. We as a society need to begin rethinking our interface with technology. Think of these devices as walky texts. If you do buy these devices or are interested in delving deeper into the rabbit hole I suggest the following YouTubers

Mesh core and the Like with Andy kirby
