a couple thoughts
I’m curious if they’re then required to use their meshtastics in HAM mode
No, but they can if they want to use the freqs and power.
I run normal nodes but might set up a MT ham node under my callsign just to see if anything pops up.
without kegels there’d be no squeezing
Want to set up a powerful
The solar node won’t be more powerful in the “radiated transmission” sense, but will have greater reach because it’s outside. And height is might as meshfolk say.
solar rooftop node/repeater/router
As others have correctly advised, nrf52-based nodes are power-sippers. This makes them a good fit for solar nodes.
I see some folks on eBay selling $200 home built solar stations. Could anyone recommend any good options for this kind of thing?
I bought one of these from PeakMesh, an etsy/ebay seller. <$100 . Very happy with design, build, performance, and the entire buying experience. I usually prefer to DIY everything but this node checked all my boxes at a sane price.
I’ve run it as a Meshtastic client base and now as Meshcore repeater after bigger dogs on my local mesh went that direction.

The seller is active on reddit as M-growingdesign. He made a post about this particular design in /r/meshtastic. It was basically marketing but there’s a good bit of discussion in the thread, including how he made design decisions.

If the ads for a feed are in a predictable position (like first two minutes, last minute, whatever) one can use sox or similar to trim the file at that point to effectively remove the ads.
But like some of the other commenters here, when the podcast is available by patreon I use that feed and avoid the whole problem.

Seems like a good enough reason to me!
I updated both my desktop and a headless server without issue.
I had a good experience with jekyll’s wordpress->jekyll import tool. But see below.
Graybeard here, so it’s probably just braindamage specific to me, but I’ve found ruby dependency setup and troubleshooting to be extremely frustrating. Hard for me to wrap my head around.
When jekyll is actually dead (right now it is “only mostly dead”) I’ll change to something that does not require ruby (eleventy?) or just go back to the nineties and do something barebones with gtml or whatever. Already playing with the latter.
