  Local CB is still a good time in some areas depending on if you have any groups around you. I commute every day, and it’s been useful and entertaining on the highway, just bullshitting with the truckers, even with people shouting nonsense in dx land, but fm is hilarious since absolutely noone uses it.

    problem is meshtastic is 900MHz, power output limitations and duty cycle limits on that band are annoying also its basically just line of sight due to the high frequency
