Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it’s legal here. These radios use the 915-928 MHz band, which anyone can use under ACMA’s Low Interference Potential Devices class licence, so there’s nothing to apply for and nothing to pay.
Yes. Messages travel directly between devices by radio (915-928 MHz band), so no towers or internet are needed.
In open terrain, up to around 10 km per hop. In urban areas it is typically 1-5 km. Coverage can be extended with solar-powered repeaters.
Yes. Many mesh communication devices can connect to your phone via Bluetooth, allowing you to send and receive messages through a simple app while the radio handles the long-range communication.
They’re two different free, open-source messaging software for LoRa radios. MeshCore focuses on light, efficient multi-hop routing so messages use less airtime and personal devices don’t have to relay for others. Meshtastic is aimed at casual LoRa messaging where every device can help pass messages. MeshCore’s firmware is made in Australia.
