7 max hops — This station sets its traffic to be rebroadcast up to 7 times; the maximum Meshtastic allows. — this is what the station SETS, not how far away it is; the value is carried unchanged through every relay.

This node has been heard by a gateway, and that is all we hold. It has not published a name or a position on this feed. Those are separate things: being received is something other people's radios do, while advertising a name and appearing on a map are each something its owner turns on.

Reading the hop budget. Every Meshtastic frame carries a hop limit that each relay decrements. A reception showing 0 left is one that arrived with nothing to spare — one more relay in the path and it would not have arrived at all. That is the closest this data comes to explaining a loss, and it is still not a loss: a frame that was dropped is exactly the one that never reached a gateway to be counted here.
