Accessing local public service communications often requires specific frequency data, and this resource provides extensive scanner frequency lists for the Greater Cleveland area. Originally compiled by Russell Imburgia, _N8RI_, these compilations were previously hosted on the now-defunct Greater Cleveland Hamnet BBS. The data is presented in two distinct formats: one sorted alphabetically by city and another organized numerically by frequency, allowing users to quickly locate specific channels based on their preferred lookup method. These lists are noted for their thoroughness in covering local public safety, business, and utility communications within the region. While the primary lists are copyrighted by N8RI, permission is granted for non-commercial reproduction, provided the copyright notice remains intact. The page also directs users to an external frequency database maintained by Jon Anhold, _N8USK_, offering an additional avenue for frequency information.

An introduction to NPR by Daniel Estevez. In this blog article Daniel EA4GPZ / M0HXM, introduce the new IP communication protocol over the 70 cm amateur radio band. Daniel is an experienced operator on IP on 430 MHz with CC1101 and Beaglebone black project and makes a good comparison of the two projects.

NPR (New Packet Radio) is a custom amateur radio digital protocol, designed by F4HDK to transport bidirectional IP trafic over radio links on the 70cm band. This IP protocol is optimized for point-to-multipoint topology, with the help of managed-TDMA. Bitrate is up to 500kbps. Home Made modem has a built-in ethernet port to connect to PC. To boost power a DMR amplifier is required to reach 20W. This project is an extension of HSMM - Hamnet - AREDN networks

MeshCom 4.0 facilitates off-grid text messaging and data exchange via _LoRa_ radio modules, operating on low-power, low-cost hardware to establish networked communication capabilities. The system transmits messages, GPS positions, sensor values, and telecontrol data over significant distances with minimal power consumption. MeshCom modules can autonomously form a mesh network or integrate into a broader message network through MeshCom gateways, which ideally connect via _HAMNET_ to link disparate radio networks. Recent updates include MCMAP features, support for Lilygo T-Connect-Pro, and new firmware for T-ECHO, enhancing the system's versatility. The project provides basic specifications, detailed protocol information, and installation instructions for MeshCom 4.0, including guides for RAK WisBlock and HELTEC V3 hardware. Firmware and companion Android/iPhone applications are available for download, supporting a range of **10-20 km** line-of-sight communication.

For amateur radio operators seeking resilient, off-grid communication, the _MeshCom_ firmware provides a robust solution for text-based messaging over a mesh network. Utilizing LoRa modulation and the APRS protocol, this firmware is designed for low-energy consumption and cost-effective hardware, primarily operating in the 70cm band. Nodes, identified by amateur radio callsigns, can send short text messages to all participants or directly to specific callsigns, functioning as repeaters to extend network reach. The system supports automatic status and position messages, with optional sensor data for WX-Data and Telemetry. MeshCom nodes can be configured as gateways to HAMNET or the internet, enhancing connectivity options. The project emphasizes a self-building and self-healing mesh network architecture, crucial for emergency communication scenarios. Operating frequencies include **433.175 MHz** (EU, USA, Africa), 439.9125 MHz (UK), and 433.925 MHz (Norway). The firmware is compatible with hardware platforms such as ESP32/LoRa modules, RAK-WISBLOCK, and ESP32-DEV4/E22-LoRa, offering a flexible deployment for various amateur radio applications.
