Do you update your nodes to the meshmap system?

His stations are located west of Yearley Rd, south of Axe Lake.  But I don't
think you will find him.  He's been experimenting with both meshtastic and
meshcore.  Not sure which he settled with.  But for his own 2-node system for
remote instrumentation monitoring, he's not expecting chat messages.  I'm not
sure if can monitor mesh/LoRa chat on his phone while he's doing that.

I'm still a bit befuddled with the LoRa/Meshcore/Meshtasic relationship and
how it works, and why would one settle with Meshcore vs Meshtastic.
