We have battery powered, and are thus untethered from the usb-c cable. Progress! #meshtastic #hackers

The hackers-themed meshtastic node in a cassette tape case, now with a battery inside.

Hearth@blazinghearth· Jan 9

Work in progress. Insert printed, tape pillars (?) snipped off, and sma connector hole drilled. Still running off USB until the battery arrives next week. #meshtastic #hackers

A cassette tape case with a homemade Hackers Original Soundtrack insert. The sticker on the front is from the original right said Fred album...

The spine of the cassette tape case, which now reads "Hackers original soundtrack, HKRS, 868MHz"

The back of the cassette, which has a list of the songs from the film Hackers.

The cassette tape case, containing a Heltec V3 connected to a small antenna poking out the top of a hole in the case, and connected to a usb-c cable for power. The case doesn't close all the way yet.

So tiny, so cute. Think I need a better antenna, this one's apparently not great. I'm getting more range on the Sensecap T1000. #meshtastic

A Heltec V3 board with the antenna connected

Close up of the Heltec v3 display. It sees three other meshtastic nodes, and has been named The Gibson.

Tokyo, day 1! Not pictured, so many 7-11 onigiri.

A narrow alleyway in Golden Gai lined with shop signs in Japanese, featuring a prominent blue awning with a blue sticker of a smiling cartoon bee and a smiley face. Pedestrians and various storefronts are visible down the alley under a sunny sky.

Several turtles are piled on top of a flat rock in a shallow fountain with clear water. The rock is surrounded by submerged stones and a red brick, and water falls into the fountain in the background.

A bowl of rich tonkotsu ramen with slices of pork chashu, two boiled eggs, green onions, seaweed sheets, and a white ramen spoon resting in the bowl. The ramen is served on a light wooden table with utensils and a water pitcher in the background.

ADS-B go brrrrrr

A line graph titled "ADS-B Message Rate" displaying message traffic statistics over time. The x-axis shows time from Sunday 15:00 to Monday 12:00, while the y-axis shows two metrics: "Messages/Second" (left scale, 0-400) and "Positions/s (NMS)" (right scale, 0-40).
Two main lines are tracked:

A green line showing "Messages Received" with higher values (generally between 150-350 messages/second)
A blue line showing "Positions/s (NMS)" with lower values (around 50-150)

The graph shows clear traffic patterns with peak activity during Sunday evening (around 21:00) and Monday morning/afternoon, with a significant drop in traffic during the overnight hours (Monday 00:00-06:00).

A stacked area graph titled "ADS-B Aircraft Seen / Tracked" displaying aircraft tracking statistics over time. The x-axis shows time from Sunday 18:00 to Monday 14:15, while the y-axis shows the number of aircraft (0-40) on both left and right scales.
The graph uses a color-coded stacked visualization with three categories:

Green area: "Aircraft w/ ADS-B pos." (aircraft with ADS-B position data)
Blue area: "w/ MLAT pos." (aircraft with multilateration position data)
Red area: "w/o pos." (aircraft without position data)

The graph shows clear patterns with peak aircraft traffic during daytime hours (peaking around 30-35 aircraft) and minimal traffic during overnight hours (Monday 00:00-06:00). There's a steady increase in tracked aircraft after Monday morning.
The legend indicates statistics including "Aircraft Seen / Tracked, Average: 17, Maximum: 39" along with the breakdown of position data types.

A graph titled "ADS-B Range" displaying the detection range statistics over time. The x-axis shows time from Sunday 18:00 to Monday 14:15, while the y-axis shows distance in Nautical Miles (0-120) on both left and right scales.
The graph uses a color-coded visualization with multiple metrics:

Light green area: "1st to 3rd Quartile" range distribution
Teal line: "Max Range" showing the maximum detection distance
Dark green area: Shows the distribution of detected ranges

A horizontal white reference line appears at approximately 80 nautical miles. The detection range varies considerably throughout the period, with maximum ranges typically between 40-80 nautical miles, and occasional peaks reaching higher.
The legend provides additional statistics:

"Closest: 0.3" (nautical miles)
"Median Distance: 16.1 (avg)"
"Avg Max Range: 39.3"
"Peak Range: 81.8" (nautical miles)

The "Users" node in @graze.social doesn't seem to work no matter what I do to it. I've tried it with a few different account and the preview feed never populates. Any ideas? Am I just using it wrong? I've tried with a DID: instead of a handle too, no luck.
