Haven’t been to Houston since the late 60s. I’ve heard it’s grown a bit…
The south side down to Galveston is pretty darn flat. Find some tall places to put up some stationary relays and you will be surprised with the reach.
If you’re aiming at hurricanes and recovery from them, consider putting up solar-powered nodes. That’s what we’re doing here, although the threats are tornadoes, snow and ice storms. Good luck and stay cool!
You should start having conversations with your neighbors about Mesh! If there interested, let us know. We’ll see what we can do to support getting your community Meshed and ready potential hurricane emergencies.
I’m getting my father in law interested. He’s from Calgary, so he travels up there for work and to sometimes travel way north where there’s no cell reception.
I also have friends that live near downtown in high rise condos where they have access to the roof top. I need to get them to set up a relay.
