...any new design should be rural area friendly...

Living in a rural location myself, I've been wondering too at what options there might be. I'm pretty new to this and have been trying to work out what kit would be needed. Any layman-friendly advice from out there would be appreciated ;-)

One of the arguments for being able to withstand the government's documented moves towards controlling Bitcoin[1], is that mining can move to any jurisdiction and any means of internet connection, even low bandwidth shortwave or HAM radio.

What do you think of this guide? I am going to set up a couple of nodes, it looks pretty straightforward, portable due to low power consumption and low cost to set up.

Edit: it helps to paste the link.. http://hsmm-mesh.org

Thanks for the link, Trollercoaster. This is the kind of thing I was after, though I still have to link a few dots on this subject; to get my head around it. There's a guy in the next village to us with quite an impressive folding HAM radio rig, about 20-30 ft. tall. I'll have to get into conversation.
