We have some custom printed LoRa radios that you can use with meshtastic that we'll be raffling Friday, May 16 the first night of the conference.
If you don't understand what that is then come see Foemat & Hax4Coffee "LoRa of the Rings: Fellowship of the Mesh" on Saturday afternoon.

Cackalacky Con takes place during a waxing gibbous this year. It’s a very fortuitous time to give a presentation, as the moon gets bigger, so does the amplification of your work and reach. The perfect time to finish a task before entering a fresh phase of your career.
