LOL - I might have ordered the Heltec, too - I guess I have to wait to state exactly what I ordered, but know I have two modules to jump in and start w/ mesh.

For me its about two things; emergency texting and the meshtastic community. I want both.
I'm hoping to learn more and put up an antenna in the near future; so that I can meet a broader meshtastic community AND send messages for my own personal use. In a world of FISAA and an ever growing non-private w0rld, these projects are so important and needed IMO.
