MeshCom Firmware — LoRa/APRS Off-Grid Mesh Messaging with WIZnet Ethernet Gateway Support PROJECT DESCRIPTION 📌 Overview MeshCom is a firmware project for building an off-grid text messaging network for amateur radio operators. It uses LoRa radio modules and APRS-style messages to exchange short text, position reports, status data, weather data, and telemetry even when normal communication infrastructure is unavailable. The README describes MeshCom as a low-energy, cost-effective, text-based communication tool using LoRa modulation and the APRS protocol in the 70 cm band. This is not just a…
