So I feel like there's a piece of information I'm missing here with #MeshTastic and it probably stems from my lack of understanding of ham radio and things like that.

yesterday I was able to find six nodes and also yesterday after updating my software and ever since then I have not been able to find anything in town. And I'm wondering if it's a channel slot issue or what? I honestly don't know why I was I was able to see a few nodes and then after updating my node I haven't seen anything since. Whether I'm stationary or going through town. Kind of confusing. Any advice for a somewhat noob when it comes to mesh-tastic?
