🚀 Announcing HAMSTR: NOSTR Over Ham Radio! 🚀

Take your NOSTR experience fully off-grid with HAMSTR - enabling decentralized communication through amateur radio. Now your NOSTR posts can travel through the airwaves! 📡

What started out as a simple, fun off-grid and camping project has morphed into an entirely different beast that is now geared towards the future of NOSTR, decentralization, and continuing the fight for censorship resistant communications and money.

Key features:

Full NOSTR functionality (post, reply, boost, search)
Works with any KISS-compatible TNC
Optimized for 300-600 baud operation
Following & Global feed support
Lightning address support ⚡
Secure key storage

⚠️ Current ALPHA supports single client-server setup (one user at a time). Future updates will bring:

Multi-user access control
Decentralized authentication
Global 24/7 server(s) access (ie: winlink) over HF radio
ZAP Support using NWC
FLDIGI support
Reticulum network integration

Perfect for:

Off-grid communication
Emergency preparedness
Decentralization advocates
Ham Radio enthusiasts


Current Requirements:

Amateur radio license
HF/VHF transceiver
KISS-compatible TNC
Python 3.7+ & Node.js 16+

This is an FOSS project and just the initial ALPHA release - experienced ham radio operators welcome to test and contribute! While this is not hard to install and use, it is not for the weary or untechnical. But any hams with modern data experience should do just fine.

Lots of work to do still. Many features and improvements planned. There will be bugs no doubt.

Questions? Hit me up on NOSTR!
