Cities nodes.

That was my flight to Great Falls, MT. Interesting to finally see the cluster of cities Mesh nodes and picked up a few more headed out West.

Is this your sister's flight back to Alaska?

There's Meshtastic networks all over and growing.

Not quite ham radio, but the future is in there.

Pre net chat covered the Brainerd Hamfest attended by a couple members and the Meshtastic meetup at Ben's QTH Saturday to build portable solar powered nodes.

Club Meeting 4-22-25 at the Kandiyohi County Rescue Squad Building 6:30pm.

I'm copying the ISS SSTV as I type.? Signal quality is ok.

However, I had neglected to look in my received image folder.

Lo and behold, there were a half dozen very poor quality FRAM 2 images!

I checked with the FRAM 2 discourse chat group and they did have some success with the ham SSTV.

A 70cm (440) beam was needed to get copy. They said this in the initial instructions and they were right.
Unfortunately, the wx here in MN wasn't fun for standing outside holding antennae.

I've been listening on a vertical antenna on 437.550 and haven't heard anything yet.

Anyone else? They are only running 5W as I understand it so a Yagi beam pointed at the Dragon spacecraft might be needed.

I use SpaceX's on line tracking page.
