I want to experiment with communications between two points about 2.5 miles apart. Trees in the path, internet at both ends but data cap at one end.
I am an electronics Technologist starting in this new field. So I understand the fundamentals - just need to know of a few documents/URLs to find the info. I read a bit about LORA but looking for systems other than LORA for now as they are cheaper.
I can mount transceivers at about 30' up.
Looking to see what data rate can be reached, also if and how voice can be sent.
Is there a system (ie:ham radio) where experimenters work with others in their local area? If so I am in Canada, areas L7G 4S4 and L7G 4A5
