The #RaleighNC #hamradio club RARS installed a #MeshCore repeater on The Eastern at North Hills. This is servicing lower elevation repeaters not just all over Raleigh, but quite a few in #CaryNC and #DurhamNC as well. The #RDUMesh is coming together fast! This is a great time to switch over from #Meshtastic and join us. Or to get started in #LoRaMesh

#MeshCore coverage in and around downtown #DurhamNC is picking up really nicely in the last couple of weeks. Parts of #CaryNC also. We need a couple more high elevation nodes to reach all of the nooks and crannies in Cary.

#RaleighNC needs a lot of help. If you’ve got a high elevation rooftop (6+ stories) and want to help, please reach out.
