Hey is there anyone making use of Lora at the moment?

Its raised my attention but I'd been playing with lots of thing :
Docker/k8, ansible, raspberry pis, cameras and some other things.

I would like to use it to connect two very distant points in a rural area where there is no signal at all (I would want to comunicate one point to the other when a motion camera detects something ).

I would just want to sent very short strings of text ( less then 128 chars)

The distance would be like 10/30 km but I've been discouraged about the short ranges of the modules.

How's theeaeninf curve? Has anyone have hands on experience?
Is there any YouTube channel you'd recommend for an absolute newbie?
 
Thanks for you input Keljian I guess I would also need to study how to point antennas in this very rural spot. TBH my buddy and myself need do some stuff that's quite complex as there is no electricity so there are many aspects to be taken care of.
Great Scott is awesome ( somehow unrelated : I watch Jeff Geerlings channnel for pi "experiments").

I'll let you know if we happen to have any progress.
