Nearing the last of the #meshcore reports:
- no repeats but direct replies in Jasper (sorry I didn’t see and reply in time @HUTT-6BD)
- saw contacts but no messages going through Kelowna (while sleeping)
- repeats but no response in Chilliwack; unrelated chatter from 8 hops away!
Probably one more check-in, in Abbotsford if I’m near my radio when we pass through, and we already know there’s a big mesh in Vancouver.

Here’s an interesting part of the cross-country #meshcore experiment that I wasn’t expecting: my contacts list has been full since the GTA. I haven’t made time to prune it, and didn’t realize the importance of this. I just received a message from “Claire in PDX”, just outside of Chilliwack. (I knew the PNW mesh was strong but I wasn’t expecting this much reach (it’s 400+km to PDX)). But the tracing tools think the same-prefixed repeaters are the ones I captured at home and earlier on the trip!
