## Introduction
Meshtastic is a project that lets you pair your mobile phone with an inexpensive (~$30) GPS LoRa radio. This allows you to communicate over a mesh network where you don’t have reliable cell/mobile reception or wifi access. The Meshtastic Android app handles the communication and shows the location of everyone in your private group. Each member of your private mesh can always see the location and distance of all other members and any text messages sent to your group chat.
