Is possible using radio network?

Any network without licence.
https://reticulum.network/ or meshtastic or PMR or audiomodem like waver (android program)

As I understand this as someone who is NOT a lawyer but is still familiar with this question, using this software does not exempt you from existing radio operator licensing requirements in your or any other jurisdiction. The FCC regulations on packet radio are not my wheelhouse but I am sure this github issue will wake up the HAM radio people lurking out there,.

I did not tried it myself, but I'm almost sure that answer is "yes".
However with very low bandwidth or very high latency network may be unusable.
If anyone knows what are minimum requirements for Yggdrasil, please share such information.
My guess is that at least few kilobytes per second and less than 1 second latency are needed.

As long as you have something that has an IP stack it should be able to be used on Yggdrasil with a tcp peer. I was wondering if WiFi Meshes utilizing Batman-adv could integrate with this program.

Meshtastic and reticulum both lack an IP stack, so you'd need to figure out how to make yggdrasil talk to peers through not IP. Or, coerce an IP stack on top of Meshtastic/reticulum

As for legality, as long as you're using legal powers/antennas/emissions, you should be fine.

You cannot use amateur bands in the US, as encryption is not allowed.
