Wicked! It’s on my list officially, what would you recommend for a node as I know there are a ton of options. Thanks for your help, I’ll stop asking questions after this.

No worries! If you're starting out you can't go wrong with a T1000-E. It's water resistant, has GPS built-in, and ties everything together in a neat package for ~$35. There are plenty of other nodes out there but it's more of a build your own kit situation. If you're into microcontroller programming and stuff like arduino/RP/etc then Heltec v3 Lora boards are good tinker hardware.
