CB radios will work just fine.

4W at 27MHz should go significantly further than LoRa but no mesh. Do you have any idea on the legality of transmitting digital signal over this channel? Obviously people listening to modem noises would hate it. ๐Ÿ˜„

There are plenty of digital modes over ham bands honestly. In theory up to 1kW or more (country/license specific) !
