• Best Mode for Spec5 Relay?

  The Repeater role is only necessary for extremely dense meshs(1000+ nodes). For 95% of users Client mode works better.

• Pulse 2-Way Radio?

  Hi jeffrey, The 2way radio function of the Pulse is separate from Lora/Meshtastic radio. It runs on the FRS(Family Radio Service) bands and cannot be encrypted.

• Antenna Analyzer

  We have a NanoVNA. I haven't tried it but there are ways to use an SDR as an antenna analyzer. You just need to have something to calibrate it against.

• What does this mean?

  There are quite a few meshtastic users that will use their devices while on a commerical airline flight, blasting messages to Meshers below as they fly overhead. I'm going to assume this was the case.

• Is the SpecFive repeater using standard non-HAM mode?

  What was your order number? Early on our Relays were programmed as "repeater" roles but we have changed them all to "client". If the device is on repeater you will not see it in the mesh.
