- [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers @wiert@mastodon.social on Twitter: “@jilles_com @Kongduino I offered the early local Lora team an antenna place on our roof. Never heard back as they wanted to go with the big telcos. I still think a community based approach like HAM radio should work well for Lora.”
- [Wayback/Archive] 科興💉💉💉💉 ⭆LoRaBandit⭅ #opentowork on Twitter: “@jpluimers @jilles_com Definitely. The more people with a gateway on a roof, the better. LoRaWAN gateways build a network that links IoT devices to the Internet. I work mostly on P2P networking, which is more similar to HAM radio: a more personal approach. 😀”
