ShawnT 🐀<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://kolektiva.social/@sidereal" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>sidereal</span></a></span> I've yet to have a full convo over city-wide <a href="https://mastodon.coffee/tags/Meshtastic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Meshtastic</span></a>. I imagine it's like fishing, where you need the right conditions and timing to make a contact (kinda like Amateur Radio that way). Antenna elevation is critical here. But it's built on LoRa, which is optimized for IoT in a star pattern; Meshtastic is shoehorned into that. I've heard of the <a href="https://mastodon.coffee/tags/ATAK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ATAK</span></a> plugin that allows MT devices to be used for events and close-range comms, but I need more friends to try it out.</p>
VK1MIC Wade<p>Continue to play with Tak / ATAK.

concretedog<p>Nice morning taking some photos of a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/meshtastic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>meshtastic</span></a> node I've built up for the second part of an <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@rpimag" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>rpimag</span></a></span> article. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LoRa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LoRa</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Comms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Comms</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ATAK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ATAK</span></a> Nettle being a helpful assistant! <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dogsofmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dogsofmastodon</span></a></p>
AI6YR Ben<p>***curious if this is going to be (likely) a proprietary system or if they'll actually use the open standards.

Bud Talbot<p>One think I would really, really like to have: <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/AndroidAuto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AndroidAuto</span></a> compatibility for <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/Calopo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Calopo</span></a>. And for <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/ATAK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ATAK</span></a> too, while we're at it. </p><p><a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/mapping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mapping</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/wildfire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildfire</span></a></p>

AI6YR Ben<p>Interesting to see a mention of ATAK in a "Tom Clancy" novel. <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Android</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/ATAK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ATAK</span></a></p>

Greg and AJ have helped me a ton with their video resources and discussion in the Slack workspace. I'm at the point where I really need to use <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/ATAK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ATAK</span></a> on a fire, with daily map and SA updates, and ideally other users. I can only learn so much by playing around with it outside of an incident.</p>

It has been pretty fun diving in.</p>

Those tutorials do not include <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/iTAK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>iTAK</span></a> since it is such a different critter compared to the other 2. <a href="https://mappingsupport.com/p2/atak/display_gis_data_with_atak.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mappingsupport.com/p2/atak/dis</span><span class="invisible">play_gis_data_with_atak.html</span></a></p><p>If you ignore ~75% of the ATAK features, the remaining features make a great hiking app. Alas, there is a learning curve.</p>
