    Hey I've been out of the HAM loop for a while now. Just set my radio back up in my truck and started trying to refaliarize myself with things. Shoot, it took me a few days to remember how to reprogram the radio!

    Anyway, I stumbled on a message in a local club group that sparked an interest in my geekey side; The AREDN Mesh! Have any of you had any experience with this technology yet? The group message was talking about the Mikrotik Hap AC Lite routers and some trouble they were having flashing them.

    Anyway, I'm just starting to research and dig in but wanted to see if any of you were on the mesh yet and if so what kind of equipment are you running? Also, is it possible/feasible to run a BBS on the mesh?

    Never took mine out, but didn't turn it on for a while, then the
    'removable piece' was dead. Put a spare on it, programmed it up,
    proceeded to talk on a net and NOTHING else - no contacts whatsoever
    while being on the road or anything. After two weeks of that I
    haven't turned it back on again...
