I'm new to the project. I have been thinking it would be intersting if there was an initiative to have people who own a property with flagpoles on them, to place a solar power meshtastic on the top. Perhaps a special enclosure could be created so its not ugly, or maybe with the use of magnets. Obviously this isn't a fully thought out idea (maintenance, updates, uglyness, power ??) but if even a couple people in a couple towns participated in something like this, it would be valuable to the community. Thank you.

I've been thinking about putting one on the flagpole in my back yard. But can't really get power to it, put a solar panel on it and have it look good, or even get up to it with a ladder.
Have the node inside a round ball enclosure with curved solar panels. Or inside an eagle with wings out and the solar panels on the back.
