SARC Meshcore
Experimental Mesh Networking for Field Testing and Learning.
Experimental Mesh Networking for Field Testing and Learning.
The Surrey Amateur Radio Communications Society (SARC) has a Meshcore repeater for experimenting with low-power, off-grid mesh networking. Our goal is to evaluate the viability of the Mesh technology for emergency and field use.
The VE7RSC mesh repeater is set to 910.525 MHz / SF7 / BW62.5 / CR5 and our public room password is the default - "hello". Note - these are the latest recommended settings for all Canadian and US nodes. If you are not running the latest configuration, we suggest that you update your device to receive more stations.
Owners of other Meshcore repeaters in the GVA are encouraged to forward their contact information to meshcore@ve7sar.net to build a list for sharing related information.
We're actively exploring how to get the most out of the Meshcore platform. If you're interested in helping build and test our experimental mesh, join our next meetup at the SARC OTC on Saturday morning at 9:30 am. Contact meshcore@ve7sar.net for more information.
We participate in the Meshcore BC WhatsApp group which is open for anyone to join via the link below.
