For Iot Developers / Makers / Tech Enthusiasts:

Build IoT That Works When the Internet Doesn’t

What happens to your smart sensors, environmental monitors, and emergency alert systems when cellular networks fail and internet goes down? We’re creating a license-free emergency backup network using ham radio infrastructure.

Why Join EmergencyHam.net?

✓ Disaster-Resilient IoT – Keep critical sensors communicating during wildfires, hurricanes, blackouts

✓ No Recurring Costs – No cellular data fees, no cloud subscriptions, community-operated

✓ Long-Range Coverage – VHF/UHF ham repeaters reach where WiFi and Bluetooth can’t

✓ Open Source – Contribute to protocols bridging LoRa, MQTT, and amateur radio digital modes

✓ Real Impact – Your weather station or air quality sensor could save lives in emergencies

We need 50 participants to launch the experimental network and pursue FCC licensing.

Your Role:

– Connect your Part 15 IoT devices (LoRa, WiFi, Zigbee) to the emergency relay network

– Test and validate sensor data transmission during drills

– Contribute to open-source gateway software development

– Share use cases and technical documentation

Make your IoT projects truly resilient:

No ham license required for Part 15 device operation. We handle the relay infrastructure.
