I'm picking up nodes when I travel via train to the Sydney CBD. I think that some 20km plus, no hop contacts are made by airplane scatter. |

I pick up 2 nodes just near North Sydney when on the bus. |

Traveling via train from Thirroul to Bondi Junction (BJ). My node at BJ sits on a window sill, facing a walled courtyard with the open sky visible, so is RF compromised. There is a node nearby within 300M that has connected. However I have got 20km, no hop contacts from various locations that I attribute to aero plane scatter. Kingsford Smith Airport is nearby, with low altitude take offs. |

Ok, replying from the discource they booted out new conversation from (still don't know why) but I think your right in regards to Mt Kaputar Meshtastic distance record. I looked at 'HeyWhatsThat' again and their Earth curvature looks a bit wrong. So I checked it using Google earth and it will just be cut off from Earth Curviture. So we need to find a bigger mountain to TX from. Somehow I don't think we can get the record or beat 315Km here in Australia. We don't have enough mountains. |

Hi everybody, living in the Netherlands but for two months my home will be on the bus in Australia, so travel around and mostly roundish the east coast and some few 100 miles land inwards. Though changes are limited I might have contact with some of you (short: WJPM). Hope it happens. |

Hello! You will have a great time in Australia. So much tomsee and do. As for Meshtastic, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane all have active Meshes. The Sydney mesh is a bit of a mess att the moment as one of our nodes up in the mountains is down, but will be back up. Sydney's Mesh is still growing. Brisbane has a big mesh, and Canberra has one of the best Mesh's in Australia, very well though out with awesome coverage all over. The Sydney Mesh has its own MQTT so make sure you have MQTT on in Sydney. Jump on, say hello and if I see you I'll say hello 👋 too! |

Planning only to use RF on my node, MQTT is a bit of cheating. There are better text services. I want to snif MQTT at home straight from the server and only protobufs, Can do this in NodeRed but encounter a small problem and that is that the decode function of @meshtastic/node-red-contrib-meshtastic like to collect but not drop data so it is flooding my drive in no-time to zero bytes available. Must be doing something wrong. |
