When my friend reached out to me a few weeks ago and told me about this Meshtastic thing he was working on to make an off-grid messaging network in our local area, I thought he was insane. But fast-forward to today, and I'm down $140 and 4 hours of my time setting up the network and testing it to see how good it really is. Spoiler alert: it actually worked.
