  • Thank you very much for the answer! The power difference between the 0.25W Lora and the 4W FM is huge yes, thats why i kinda hoped Thor over CB would give me better range in a environment where line of sight is not given and there isnt a Mesh network in place for the LoRa.

    I am trying to make a low speed text chat connection at a distance of 20-40km, with half a city between the Radios. I looked into LoRa based standalone devices like the T-Deck, but what i saw online was sobering regarding the actual functionality out in the field(besides super duper ranges in elevated line of sight).

    The next idea was just geting a cheap used CB-Radio and hooking it up to AndFLmsg, would that be realistic to clear the distance of 20-40km with half a city between it?

    I mean if that dosent work out there is still the non licensed sub 9khz band…
