Radio frequencies and systems on Playa 2022?

[prussianblue]

I know many people have brought FRS/GMRS radios to playa in past years. These don't work great due to all the folks on just a few channels. What other radio gear are people bringing in 2022? Some of my folk are Hams so we may be using that allocation but we want to provide for some non-Hams as well. Who is doing what?

In the past, most of this has been coordinated at https://groups.google.com/a/burningman. ... -wifi-list.

It's quiet now. Often there is a phone call led by BMORG in May. The BMORG prioritizes the big pipe to the default world for art projects. So if you want to provide connectivity for an art project, you could consult with your friends at the Artery.

I'm a total noob to radio comms but it would be cool if there was a GMRS repeater in BRC this year to aid with getting around obstacles.
