Hi (sorry dont have a name for you)
Understood - and challenge of course is that its hard to get involved if
there is noone there to help onboard.
There is interest in disaster resilient comms here in Australia and I'm
involved with some of the resilience work (in a non-technical capacity),
I've also worked with ESP8266's before and I believe the ESP32 is similar.
Disaster.radio looks like a more appropriate solution for disaster
setups than meshtastic, the typical use case I'm interested in, is as an
alternative to the net when the net goes down, so connecting an existing
device via to a wifi access point makes more sense than assuming
everyone has a mesh device and connects to it on Bluetooth (which I
think is the meshtastic architecture). I also like the idea of a web-app
because the maintenance becomes something many people can contribute to,
and it should work with any device.
Can you clarify what the current state is - i.e. if I got the boards,
built a pair of units, and flashed it - then would the chat and map apps
talk over it. If I can get to that step I can probably demonstrate it to
some other technical people and get people enthused to collaborate, if I
can't get it to that step its going to be much harder and rely on me
having a decent chunk of time to contribute before getting anyone involved.
By the way ... I notice there is a bad link to the enclosure on
https://disaster.radio/build/ which goes to
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000429348282.html?spm=0.8937489.0.0.10992e…
which doesnt exist. Do you know of another source for enclosures.

I've been spending my free time trying to modify the firmware for the
v3 dual-module prototype, it is slow-going.
Other LoRa boards seem to work pretty well with the firmware in its
current state

I tried to find out what was happening with Disaster Radio, by
asking here - got zero responses :-( its really hard to figure out
if there is anything going on that is useful to connect with :-(

https://sudoroom.org/lists/listinfo/disasterradio Hi,active list?Grzegorz
Sort of. When people ask, someone answers. But not much seems to be
happening. I do have the impression that those on the list wish there'd
be more activity, and that most of them sort of hope to contribute. I
of course do not speak for the coalition.
Perhaps you can tell us why you're interested and what you'd like to see
as highest priority.
