Mesh radio is so cool, just sending silly messages to group members in town and it's seen as far away as the city 1.5 hour drive south of us đŸ¤¯ #mesh

It is very cool, but if you're going to talk about more local things to you, you might consider creating yourself a channel for your local area. That way, people one and a half hours south of you or whatever don't have to hear about that local restaurant. I had that same issue the other day where there was a band opening and we were trying to talk and broken parts of conversations from the band opening were coming in from like two hours away by car. So we created our own local channel to talk amongst ourselves and are now leaving the public channel for airplanes or people who are mobile, etc. who are just passing through.

As an example, say you lived in a town called Pine Lake you could create a channel with the following. Name: Pine Lake Key: AQ== The point is not to have unknown encryption, it's to have a channel that's only for more local use. And so by using the standard key, you facilitate that with the different channel name.

I am going to get that going, hopefully by the time my group has its table at the farmer's market. I don't want to be annoying radio folks up and down the East Coast. But for my first day on radio it was super neat to see how far LongFast can reach!
