    Have a look at meshmap.net. That shows people who have voluntarily put themselves on a map.

    Although it can be a serious underestimation, for example in my area, I’m the only one who lists myself on the map, but there are about 10 other nodes that don’t

    Edit: Also, the number of nodes on MeshMap has pretty much doubled in six months since I started playing with it.

      Hmm, more than I expected actually. None in my town but one in a nearby town and the nearest city.

      Is there a limit to how far can you communicate through multiple nodes? Also is there anything special for setting up a repeater compared to just communicating on the network?

      Though i don’t know anyone else that would be likely to use something like this sadly.

        Remember, that map is volunteer and only shows nodes of a day or less.

        For example, I am the only node in my area who voluntarily puts myself on the map, but there are 10 others who do not.
