In my area, some people put small solar nodes on top of high buildings (office, university, and apartment). The node on my roof can directly communicate with one of these nodes ~20km away. Pretty crazy tor something that can run indefinitely on a 18650 battery and small solar panel. I’ve heard some people just place “guerilla nodes” to extend coverage.
So, I have rolling hills, but every ideal spot has a cell phone mast, I’m thinking they’d notice. There are some power pylons, I think they’d notice as well. Either one of those would probably be a felony.
None of the buildings are tall enough, it’s US suburbia. I have a drone, i could probably airdrop a small solar node on a roof.
There’s a really large water tower a couple miles away, not LOS, but it would be amazing to help the cause. But again, I don’t think that would go over well and i’m not fond enough of heights to install it.
