Free satellite hotspot from SHTF Radio Networks — storm recovery, fair use, and live radar
SHTF Radio Networks and DigiDom Advanced Technologies fund this hotspot as a free emergency service for the community— not only immediate neighbors. Teams often set up where people gather after storms: Walmart parking lots, church lots, FEMA staging areas, and similar sites. Bandwidth is shared and costly over satellite — please stick to essentials so everyone gets a turn.

Fair use — this is a metered emergency link
Hotspot access usually includes about 500 MB of data per guest per day for essentials only. It's shared satellite bandwidth — when one person streams or downloads huge files, everyone waits longer for email and maps.
- ✓Good uses: email; texting/SMS; lightweight messaging apps (e.g. WhatsApp text— keep photos/voice notes tiny or wait until you're on unmetered Wi‑Fi).
- ✗Please avoid: video streaming (YouTube, TikTok, reels), video calls when a quick message will do, heavy music/podcast streaming, large downloads, cloud backups, and game/console updates — they burn quota in minutes.
- ◆Audio: keep it minimal (short voice notes only if needed). If it buffers or counts as streaming, skip it here.
If you hit your daily limit, you'll need to wait until the hotspot resets — exact timing is set on the network side. Thanks for helping the next person in line.
