## About

This is the Edinburgh TTN community, providing TTN LoRaWAN coverage across Edinburgh and the Lothians. We now have coverage in central Edinburgh, Portobello and gateways in the Lothians.

Gateways are springing up all over town, please join us and help us extend our reach! We can assist in getting your gateway up and running, building your own gateways, antennas and developing nodes.

Edinburgh also has occasional [LoRaWAN/TTN meetups](https://www.meetup.com/Edinburgh-LoRa-and-The-Things-Network-Meetup), a great opportunity to catch up with other gateway owners and chat about projects!
