    What the mesh does that GMRS can’t do though is if the person is not by their radio, the minute you want them, then once their phone comes back within Bluetooth range of their radio, it will just download the message and notify them that they got a new message that they need to read.

    With GMRS, if I’m taking a shower, and the radio is in my bedroom, and somebody calls me, then I just miss out. But with the mesh, somebody can just send me a message. And when I get back to my room, I’ll see it.
