Portable self-enclosed Meshtastic radio case based on RAK 19007 module. I wanted a self-contained radio I could use to type messages without having to tether to a phone. Design is loosely inspired by the old school Motorola Talkabout pagers. Included a lanyard loop. Build Notes:The little stubby antenna included with the RAK kit is located inside the lid to keep things clean. CardKB connector needs to be removed. Careful with this as you can lift the pads.Use some soft silicone wires to help slide in and out of the lid as you open it. I used 22AWG.
