      Some command-line tools for dealing with serial "AT" modem-like devices:
      minicom - A simple terminal program
      cu uucp uuencode uudecode - Old unix-2-unix suite for call-up, copying etc 7-bit-clean
      Quick note, even inexpensive uart-to-usb bridge devices usually have a "DTR" or "RTS" pin, that can be connected to the RST (reset) on your LoRa device ... a low pulse, sometimes through a little capacitor. Test this in minicom by sending a "Hangup".

      Just a FYI it has already been done several times if you check on YT here. Might save a bit of coding time. Honestly you'd be better off using meshtastic for the mesh relay to far extend how far the Lora has to cover for something like this. These UART/AT command style modules do NOT work with meshtastic, but you can probably use painlessmesh arduino lib or look into using the ClusterDuck protocol which also can mesh/relay thru.

    LoRa is regulated by FCC as well (It’s just license free similar to the ISM band but you do have some limitations, which when exceeded means that you’re disobeying the law.
    You don’t need a license to use a cordless phone as well).
    By the way this regulation limits the number of messages that are allowed to be transmitted every hour by limiting the transmission duty cycle to between 0.1% and 1.0% per day depending on the channel.
    Another note, it’s quite easy to triangulate such a device to find the transmitter so beware when you disobey the law.
    Also you forgot to mention that the fastest transmissions speed for LoRa is 22Kbps (kilobit, not kilobyte) which will only work for short range communication (not much of a WiFi replacement lol).
    In order to increase the range to the numbers you’ve talked about you have to reduce the speed to be 0.3kbps or slower.
    At maximum speed at 1% duty cycle you’re limited by law and not allowed to transmit more than 2.376 megabytes per day.
    There are less limitations on LoRa for HAMs in case the transmission is in one of the HAM bands (for example some LoRa chips use the 433Mhz band).
    This case requires a license and has some other limitations.
    For example encryption is not allowed as well as you’re required to transmit your call sign every time you start a transmission and every 10 minutes of transmission.

Even if they do go out, they do find it, they do take it, well... then for 26.00 I'll put up another one. No one is having their name and address silked onto these lora modules as far as I've heard.

If it's bad enough, triangulating a signal is not hard, and these "Fox Hunts" are often done for fun at HAM Festivals, like a radio-based game of tag. Finding a rogue transmitter is just a sport to HAMs, so if someone is going to be a pest and hurt the community by DoS'ing the local RF bands, HAMs CAN and often WILL track them down. And they'll do it quickly because they think it's fun and a community service at the same time!

    good intro... but for now what you said is just straight bullshit. LoRa is regulated to use different frequency in different part of the world, like 915MHz, 867MHz, 433MHz, and then there is the data rate, right now, LoRa theoretically top out at around 250kbps with 2.4GHz LoRa specification. You can't even watch your own video with that kind of bandwidth. You are misleading those people who don't have a strong background. In no world will LoRa replace WLAN. Then again, if your are already using 2.4GHz band, why not use Wifi then? It has way more bandwidth and crucially generally supported by most devices nowadays. If you would like to use on DIY project, why don't use a ESP32 then? It just as easy to use and it's way cheaper then LoRa modules.
    You are a very smart guy and I did learn a lot from watching your other videos, but probably should have done more digging before making this video.

      I can think of one reason to use this over wifi despite the bandwidth difference. Okay, two. 1.) It's free, after its initial purchase that is. No service charges. 2.) It's decentralized. Hence the no service charges. But that's about the end of my limited knowledge of these. They're still neato. :) I'd like to get my paws on a couple for info purposed and general tinkering. Maybe you can tell me if these are suitable replacements for IR transmission generally found in the likes of radio-controlled gadgets like drones and RC cars or whatnot. I'm fairly green at this Arduino and esp32 stuff and there are soooo many possibilities out there that sometimes it takes a while even to correctly identify a controller module exactly as the IDE would know it to be when I buy a new, unfamiliar board. (It's been a blast, though. :) This rabbit hole is deep and super fun!)

      @@NopeOnARope_ You can perfectly host a Wi-Fi hotspot at no charge and you are legally allowed to. You don't need an internet subscription at all. You could make a similar point with LoRaWAN, which is often a paid service.
      The reasons why you would use LoRa in the 2.4GHz band would likely be range and battery use, since I expect that the LoRa modulation would be much more resilient than Wi-Fi, even at an apparently way lower transmission power. I've seen some experimentation that showed good results even indoors, which I really doubt would have been remotely feasible with Wi-Fi.
      I actually recently researched the use of LoRa for RC cars. My opinion is that you can completely give up on using anything else than a 2.4GHz transceiver, because in sub-GHz you are too tight on bitrate, duty cycle limitations (PLEASE RESEARCH THOSE if you're planning on emitting at any high rate on sub-GHz bands, there is NO sub-GHz band you can legally use at such speeds without greatly reducing transmit power!) and the per-message overhead is too significant to make sense. And if you want telemetry, which is where using a custom radio makes sense in the first place, you're sort of screwed unless you drop the update Hz to sluggish levels.
      LoRa and real-time communications mix poorly by design. Especially accounting to the fact that the LoRa preamble/header is a lot of overhead for very short messages. But I'm still actually exploring the 2.4GHz band for RC car uses for the meme.
      For other RC stuff, especially autonomous RC vehicles, it makes a ton more sense because there actually seems to be a point to very long range low bitrate uses: updating waypoints, sending some return to home signal, receiving occasional GPS/accelerometer telemetry, idk I've never done drone/plane/boat RC stuff :)

    or in other words: the main problem is suddenly the earths curvature.
    totally scary idea: what would be required for EME (moonbounce). regular moonbounce transmission require more than 100W sending power, way more than what lora specs allow. but since the requirements for a successful connection are lower too, a few watts might be sufficient.

(UART stands for Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter). The data rate of the UART is known as the Baud Rate (pronounced "bod rate").

      This is only partly true, as the duty cycle is very dependent on the frequency plan. I've only checked both of the EU bands, but some channels in those allow up to 10% duty cycles at reasonably high transmit powers for some channels, and even 100% duty cycles on very specific channels albeit at a much reduced transmit power. Don't quote me on it though, I had to dig up ETSI documents that i probably don't fully comprehend :)
      As for the 2.4GHz ISM band, for which there actually are LoRa transceivers, it basically just seems like a far west with no duty cycle limitations that is even harder to search legal info for.
      Finding such information with limited prior knowledge was surprisingly difficult.

      So called "crystal radios" were one the first types of radio receivers and pulled power from the broadcast signal itself. They connected to an earth ground and had a wire antenna, and a very small number of parts. The ones I've seen used a earphone and didn't have a volume control due to the low amount of power available, there was just a frequency adjustment to select the AM station. They did not work with FM.

    I am a little suspicious about the helix antenna, if it is a quarter wavelength antenna then it requires a groundplane to work properly, the groundplane creates an image of the field from the antenna. assuming that the groundplane is infinitely large, in reality the groundplane only has to be larger than the wavelength to do a decent job. I do think this antenna is optimized for size not antenna gain. Thus large improvements can be done. remember that the E / B field decays with the distance 1/r^2

    The idea of installing remote weather stations with this tech is brilliant. I recently was introduced to a website called the Weather Underground, which is a network of community run weather stations. Someone in my area has one because there's no government station there, and the weather does differ substantially to the neighbouring stations, so we will be able to use it to monitor when to do certain tasks, like watering the garden.
    But there are similarly exposed peaks to your Mt. Washington not far from there either. Mt. Bogong ... the tallest mountain in the state can have radically different weather to the trailheads for climbing it. A weather station transmitting using LORA would only need to have line of site with a server that's connected to the internet to handle this.

As long as the aerial vehicle is within line of sight (as directed by the FAA) and it’s not flying in controlled airspace (pilot will need to use a NOTAM for flight planning). I’m not even sure if I said that right. If there are any pilots out there who are willing to correct me, then please feel free to do so.

      Well, that's the Anglified sound, but the guy was French so you have to pronounce it in French: Baudot,

    Very cool video! Thank you for making it. I have been interested lately in LoRa stuff and your very basic introduction was a breath of fresh air compared to a lot of what I have seen lately.

    UART is pronounced "you-art".
    BAUD is pronounced "bawd".
    I was exactly like you in my youthful days. I spent my hours reading and learning and working on ideas with boundless enthusiasm. Talk to some folks and you'll learn things like these pronunciations and it's also a great way to share what you know. TH-cam is, of course, also great for that.

    Expanding on your idea, integrating multiple sensors such as weather stations, seismographs, and smoke detectors into a mesh network powered by solar panels offers a robust and cost-effective solution for monitoring and protecting large, remote areas. As previously mentioned, by expanding beyond a basic weather station, you can incorporate additional devices such as a seismographs or smoke detectors. These interconnected devices can be deployed in various remote locations such as forests, mountainous areas, or even pipelines. By utilizing a modest power supply and a small solar panel, these devices can operate continuously. Through a mesh network and a gateway connection, data can be transmitted to a central station in real-time, enabling the collection of data over a wide and protected area. This approach can streamline the hardware requirements, which would typically cost thousands of dollars, by developing applications for these compact and cost-effective devices. Ultimately, if a user is to enter one of this areas, he can have one device with simply a gps and 2 way audio that can cost around 90 usd that can be connected to the complete network and have you and the safety teams of your stats... just saying

They could use small GMSR handhelds but in some poor countries the police may be using those frequencies. Do not want to interfere with them. Sometimes it is like "go get Dr. Whoever to come look at this". "We need more disinfectant at station 4". Things like that. Could this work for that kind of application?

    In it's heyday, traditional Internet phone modems were 56k (56,000 baud rate). This is roughly twice as fast and can be faster utilizing compression.Only the protocols and translation overhead, and possible security protocols must be accounted for. Analogous to early DSL, ISDN. So a wireless phone modem technology. An enterprising group can build a decent communication system over this that can include audio and video with compression. I like it.

      i think you missed that when he set the 115200 baud rate, that was only the bit rate for the USB to UART bridge. at 8:50 to 8:54 he said LoRa is meant for about a hundred bytes every 10 to 15 minutes, which is a much lower data rate. and wireless data transmission rate depends on other factors, like the LoRa module settings, distance between nodes, interference. but generally the point of LoRa is in the name, Long Range. and to get the long range it means a lower data rate

I understand radio but still I may be mixing stuff since I dont know much in this field.

      Our local farmer had a system installed to run automation around the farm( around here it's a flat as a kippers dick,so in theory they had half a chance) It was promised to be capable of sending small data packages for irrigation and location systems,turn on pumps,valves etc. Noticing it being all being removed about a month after it was fitted I I took the opportunity in the pub that night to grill the the farmers son who incidentally is a fibre optics engineer. He stated that it just didn't work,its limited capacity wasn't capable of controlling some of the devices dependant upon it,it had poor and varying signal performance,was apparently susceptible to interference and easy to intercept/interfere with,admittedly the last not really a problem for a farm.but I'd imagine the farmer still expected it to at least work. Upon further conversations,their new set up is a Motorola system that was in his words "not much dearer but leagues ahead in performance". much like anything,if these cheap little devices were as good as stated their use would be widespread.
