MeshCore SAR – The final hurdle has been reached for MeshCore
I did a post about a week back when I started investigating a possible migration from Meshtastic radio to MeshCore radio network. I won't repeat that post here, but I'll mention two issues that often came up about MeshCore, and why this is just no longer true.
Myth 1: MeshCore is not open source...

The Westport Astronomical Society Amateur Radio Club K1WAS installed a Meshcore repeater at the Westport Observatory this weekend. Conrad N2YCH, Dan N3DAW & Peter K1PCN have the node running atop the Observatory Tower, connecting Fairfield County to the rest of CT. Check out today's CT Post article for the full story!

From Ham Radio 24-7 (fb page)
🇨🇦📡 WHEN GOVERNMENTS PULL THE PLUG — HAM RADIO PICKS UP THE MIC.
On March 16th, 2026, Canada permanently shut down Weatheradio Canada. 186 transmitter sites. 50 years of service. Gone overnight. Their replacement? A smartphone app.
But here’s the hard truth that no government app can fix.
When a tornado touches down in rural Manitoba — cell towers fail. When floodwaters sweep through Saskatchewan — power grids collapse. When wildfires cut off northern communities — the internet disappears. And in that exact moment of crisis, the WeatherCAN app becomes a useless black screen.
This is precisely where amateur radio operators step in.
Canadian hams are already organizing severe weather watching networks using IRLP — linking repeaters and stations across entire provinces to relay real-time storm information when every commercial system goes dark. No towers needed. No internet required. No subscription. No outage.
Just trained operators, reliable equipment, and an unwavering commitment to keeping communities informed and alive.
Radio Amateurs of Canada called this closure a serious public safety concern. We agree. Because history proves it every single time — hurricanes, floods, wildfires, earthquakes — ham radio operators are ALWAYS the last ones standing when infrastructure collapses.
When the grid fails — we don’t.

Had a lot of fun activating OE/NO-258 Gaisstein at 978m/3195,5ft on 2m/10m/15m.
Can you spot the lizard next to my #g90? It stayed by my side for a long time, enjoyed the sun and bugs it hunted. 😆
16 S2S and 39 QSOs in total in 3hrs, from Wales to Valenzia to Moskow.
Trying for the 1st time the #chameleon MPAS 2.0 vertical ANT in the Tasmanian Tiger ruck. Again: Far too heavy for #sota but suitable for #Emcomm. Just another experiment.
Rain was very close, so I improvised quickly a shelter.

Had a great time providing radio communications at the #HeadOfTheCharles Regatta the past 3 days. Relatively uneventful for me aside from a few out of tent responses.

Farpoint Farms (Erik) on YouTube makes a good case for why we all might want to consider owning an old-fashioned analog #scanner for use during emergencies - even if most of the comms around you have moved over to digital ~ #EMCOMM #Helene #DisasterCommunication #Hurricane2024 #HamRadio #AmateurRadio ~ https://youtu.be/BX7EH708Jd0?si=jZDKYIv9dsPRaoye

I love how Coding agents allow me to implement the crazy ideas in my head! Checkout my TUI (Terminal UI) client for APRS. It now supports #digirig #mobilinkd and #direwolf. Check it out https://github.com/eusef/eusef-aprs-tui.

That said. I’m turning on my radio and I will be monitoring 146.52 MHz for any #emcomm traffic

Too many HOAs are trying to silence amateur radio operators with antenna bans and other restrictions, cutting off innovation, communication, and even emergency readiness.
I wrote about why this matters and how you can help change it -> https://kj5fte.radio/dont-let-hoas-silence-ham-radio/
We can’t let HOAs turn the airwaves into dead air. Send your letter and make some noise. 📡

@wdlindsy too many #trumpers in my local #hamRadio clubs for me to see them as #safeplaces. #ARES #RACES particularly so. (#CERT, not so much because it largely led by #blackwomen & run by #FEMA). How would they respond to communications #emergenies in 75% #AfricanAmerican #princegeorgescounty? I began to lose interest in local #emcomm years ago when "teammates" indicated that they wouldn't #volunteer in #sketchyneighborhoods 🙄. #america is #sketchyneighborhood for #blackfolks.🤔 #blackmastodon

CW: Disasters, early warning via crowdsourcing works
@ai6yr this is exactly what started me down this #hamradio #emcomm #wavetalkers path back in the early hours of the #ThomasFire
Wildfires can move way faster than official channels are able to keep up with. The work you do to help keep us informed of rapidly changing events is so critical. Thanks for all you do!

Over the weekend when I was doing bike ride SAG and comms, there were a few rough spots on the route where not only could I not reach the local ham repeaters we were using, but when the net control texted my cell phone as a backup cell service was unavailable.
A feature like this may prove useful for ARES operations in a case like this, we’ll have to give it a shot once it is live.
