Yes, please - I would like to see examples of the hardware stack that enables this use-case.

Thanks.

I’m trying to dig up the M17 messages on the chipsets, but until then - WiFi is incredibly popular and operates on ISM bands. Same with LoraWan, and I have seen some proprietary 900Mhz mesh devices (I think called Milo(?)).

The M17 project found some low cost transceivers that operate on a pretty low level, and I think those would be relevant for future development on ISM for people wanting to use encryption.

Talk to your radio supplier, there are many encryption devices routinely used on VHF and UHF.

Of course encryption is not impossible on HF, just a bit more difficult.

Whatever, both commercial and military uses are using encryption on HF.

Commercial and military use encryption with well known backdoors on HF, using bands only they are licensed to use with proprietary hardware.

This is why proprietary solutions are non-starters.

Civilians deserve real encryption they can control with provable privacy.
