If you are new

You do not need to own anything to ask. A good number of people here started by turning up in the channel with "I have read about this, what do I buy" — that is a completely normal way to begin, and you will get several opinions.

If you already have a node and cannot get it working, say which hardware and which app, and paste your LoRa settings. Nine times out of ten it is a preset that never got switched off.
