Yeah that's why I suggest a small subset of the UHF spectrum - it's naturally range limited to your local repeaters and it has the room to carve some space for whatever encrypted traffic is flowing.
Whether that space is used for meshtastic, AREDN, etc is up to the local band plan. Leave some for experimenters.
Even APRS (which I realize is usually vhf) would benefit - sms over aprs meant all your phone numbers were public.
- giantrobot 3y agoIf you are transmitting an encrypted signal and I am not the recipient, I just see it as noise. There's no way for me to know its not noise. Since I have no insight into the transmission other than it's noise I don't have any idea when I get to use the shared medium you decided you wanted to monopolize. IIRC there's more bandwidth in just the 2.4GHz ISM band than all of the ham bands combined. If you want to blast noise (what your encrypted signal appears as) use ISM bands. Don't blast noise on ham bands.
