Brighton to Crawley Challenge via Burgess Hill and Haywards Heath Nodes

I’ve got a buddy in Crawley with a Node PRN5 , pretty sure that’s it, he got me into this so it’s all his fault! :slight_smile: I want to try my beam portable at Ditchling Beacon aiming for Burgess Hill / Haywards Heath and see if he can do the same and make contact

Something strange is going on in Brighton

  1. Nothing works , can’t send or receive, my reliable Heltecs X2 are just not working, I tried different Antennas and swapped pigtails and leads. The power is ok.

  2. I noticed 21hrs ago when the mesh was only partially usable I noticed a flood of new Nodes linked in via some Repeaters? I’m guessing. I’ll show my Node list.

  3. None of my regulars are showing up on my list. :pensive:

  4. The new update of Meshtastic has made no difference.

  5. Could it be due to CME Sunspot activity?





HI All. Just saying hello. Been playing with a few devices over the last month. Good days and bad days over here in East Brighton. All my devices have “DJX” in the short ID code. I have set up a repeater but I think I need to get it higher - just waitng for a waterproof box to turn up.
Brilliant reception/contacts if you go up to the racecourse/TV mast.
