### How do I get my node on the map?
These are general requirements. Refer to the [official docs](https://meshtastic.org/docs/configuration/) or reach out to the fantastic Meshtastic community
(such as at [r/meshtastic](https://www.reddit.com/r/meshtastic/)) for additional support.
- First, make sure you are running a [recent firmware](https://meshtastic.org/downloads/) version
- Use the default primary channel and encryption key
- Enable "OK to MQTT" in LoRa configuration (signaling you want your messages uplinked via MQTT)
- Enable position reports from your node
- This may mean enabling your node's built-in GPS, sharing your phone's location via the app, or setting a fixed position
- Ensure "Position enabled" is enabled on the primary channel
- Precise locations are filtered (see important update below -- the default precision will work)
If your node can be heard by another node already reporting to MQTT, that's it!
