I think a lot of people that critizice Spec5 don't take into consideration how they are risking their money, time and opportunities to pioneer an industry. This type of projects are fuled by vision and bravery. Daniel was honest when he said "we do the 3d printing and DYI-ing so you don't have to". Just remember how the first Macs were made out of wood and manual soldering by some geeks in a garage, same as the first ham radios were made out of tubes and coils in garages. Geat stuff in this video. Looking into Reticulum and RNodes, and mesh networks in general. Learned a lot today. Thanks Frank and Jason for the great content.

I just got a Meshtastic device installed on my tower last week.

[DominicMazoch]

How about a "DigiRig" "dongle" so you can use this system on equipment you already have?

[DominicMazoch]

This system is maybe a little complicated for George Jetson, but I think Willie E Coyote could use it! Provided he does not order it from ACME.

Meshtasic video games... The Pong & early Atari of the modern world! 🤔 | ° | | 🕹
Well, we gotta start somewhere!

Your affiliate link doesn't look like it is working.

[DominicMazoch]

Now, why can't the major ham companies make a 2/.70m rig with Linux or PI installed so you can do Winlink in one package.

As long as spec5 stays decentralized, I can see them being the tip of the spear manufacturer for the public securing privacy and security. What is holding me back is my inability to use a 7" tablet that doesn't have gps inside with atak. I find having to use cell phones as a crutch, as my phone has a baked in sim, and that is the future of cell phones. I'm sick and tired of companies giving us what they want us to have instead of giving us what we want. Find a way to use non gps enabled devices with gps enabled mesh devices and I'll buy 12 units.

The problem i see with meshtastic is that the user has too many options. If users were on the same sheet of music it would sound good. As an IT guy for 20 years these devices are exhausting.

We need direct vox messaging stand alone

I have rocket launch site for your satellite

The future of meshtastic is not a proprietary mesh protocol.

[DominicMazoch]

It should not cost a $1000 to have a ham/Android combo rig

[TristinColby]

Going proprietary defeats the purpose. Yuck

[FullTimeOverland]

Google has lower standards, so that's all I need to know about your apps 😂
