The cheaper v3 and more talk on youtube finally pushed me to order a LoRa board.

      Welcome, yeah depending on where you are the network still has big gaps. I’ve been on my local mqtt topic to stay connected, but I did hit a lot of nodes driving through Tennessee.

        Yeah. I live in an area with a lot of river valleys, so the signal doesn’t propagate as far, either. I might set up a solar client on top of a nearby ridge to try and build out the mesh.

    Same here. The guy I ordered from is suffering a massive backorder problem, though. Can’t wait to get my boards delivered, though.

    For a complete noob, can you explain the difference between the versions? Does V3 interact with the V2 OK?
