I do like the meteor-trail system, but in the end I have to say for "regular ol' comms between teams" the PRC-70 does pretty well. Set up a wire, wait till sundown, and send Morse or modem traffic over most of North America.
One problem with Morronet: if someone (say the government) DOES get interested, they (a) cut the wire, and (b) follow the wires to all your locations. With a project taking at least two decades to set up, that seems a bit risky. And if the answer to that is "well, the government secretly likes and assists the Project", then the Project should just piggyback on government systems.
