I'm excited for these 1W nodes. I'm in an area outside a large city. The city has a lot of activity and I can hear much of it due to a station g2 on a sky scraper. But they can't hear me. I think a little more transmit power in my area can bridge the divide and really extend the mesh
That's kind of my position. I'm in the suburbs, 20km away from the skyscrapers. This thing now bridges the local cummunity with downtown.
