Welcome to the party!
nyme.sh is a group of enthusiasts who love Meshtastic! Most of us are in the New York City metro area, but anyone with an interest is invited to join—no matter where you’re from. If you’re curious about Meshtastic or other mesh radio technologies, we’d love to have you be part of our community! Join us on Discord to chat with the crew. See you there ;)

What is this?
Meshtastic and MeshCore are tools for building networks using inexpensive, low-power radio devices, often paired with a smartphone, that operate in a decentralized mesh fashion on license-free frequencies. We are a group of people operating independent, autonomous communication networks covering wide areas in the New York vicinity using these technologies. The networks are low-throughput and limited to short text messages, but they are resilient and can generally withstand widespread power or internet outages. Think walkie-talkies but with text messages. They are not intended to be life-safety tools, but we hope you still find the networks useful!
We also have lots of experience using these tools in other contexts, like hiking and festivals, and other things like Amateur Radio, so hop onto the network or the Discord if you want to learn more. All questions welcome!
Current Settings
The main NYC-area network uses Meshtastic and is operating on a non-default Frequency Slot (history).
The NYC MeshCore presence is operating on US defaults. Check the config guide for details.
