On #reticulummeshchat #reticulum #reticulummesh #meshchat you can over #radio
1. run multiple #lora #rnodes on one computer.
2. make voice calls over #433mhz ( #ism band at low 12dBm power) between two #rnodes , but of course with delay.
I used #heltec #t114 (version 2 ) and two #lilygo #tbeam for
#VoiceCall #telephony
(un/like #meshtastic )
3. image files can also be transferred

#Settings in #reticulum #meshchat #reticulummeshchat #rns for #lora #radio #mesh Always set your stationary / radio #rnode #rnodes to be #gateway nodes (#interfaces) for effective #routing in your #mesh. See Sect 6.14 of rns #reticumlumnetworkstack manual
https://reticulum.network/manual/Reticulum%20Manual.pdf
(and of course always also as #transport node else message packets from other nodes won't spread) Set the settings in the #configuration file or #update the #meshchat program now & set to gateway in the settings menu.

Link below is for step by step instructions for installing #reticulum #meshchat on #RaspberryPi using #commandline ( e.g. with #remote #headless #ssh ) with automatic #restart of #radio #rnode #service on pi power-on or #reboot . Suitable for restart of pi+rnode after #brownout of #SolarNode following period of little sun, or for rnode in car #carnode to start automatically when car starts, or battery powered node --->

Is its possible to have a #mastodon -like #fediverse #instance that uses #reticulum #meshnetwork #network like #nomadnet ?
( #reticulummeshchat is great but has no #group #chats at the moment )

The video is long but does show you how to do it and what to avoid. Highly recommended.
