Meshtastic Weather Nodes and soggy bog.
by Colin Murphy  22 Feb 2025
The lone metal pole that previously marked the highpoint of this mediocre top (also known as Knockanefune) has been joined by a curious yoke called a 'Meshtastic Weather Node,' which has a small solar panel. I assume it records weather conditions and transmits them to someone, but have no idea who put it there. Met Eireann? The fact that it also has a panel recording the name and correct height of Baraveha suggests it's official. It says much that this is probably Baraveha's most interesting feature.
