MeshCore South Australia
SA Mesh is the South Australian MeshCore community hub for people who want to join, test, improve or understand the local MeshCore network.
Use this page when you searched for MeshCore South Australia, MeshCore SA or South Australia MeshCore and need the practical community starting point rather than only a live dashboard.
Start here
- Read Getting started with MeshCore before buying or changing hardware.
- Use Frequency & Settings for the current SA Mesh radio baseline.
- Check the live SA Mesh dashboard and SA Mesh map as supporting visibility tools.
- Join the SA Mesh Discord for community help, coordination and corrections.
Local South Australian MeshCore baseline

| Setting | Value |

| Frequency | 923.125 MHz |
| Bandwidth | 62.5 kHz |
| Spreading factor | 8 |
| Coding rate | 8 preferred |
See Frequency & Settings for the fuller guidance and cautions.
Community roles
SA Mesh focuses on community onboarding, local documentation, safe starting settings and links to the shared tools. Operational dashboards, observers and repeaters may be run by different community members or organisations.
For new users, the safest path is usually a MeshCore companion node first. Do not start with repeater firmware unless there is a clear coverage reason and the community has agreed it helps.
