Software Defined Radio (SDR) opens the door to hidden worlds of wireless and radio frequency technology. For very little cost and just a few minutes of training, you will monitor local radio traffic, track aircraft.
Delving further, you’ll use specialized hardware and software, like the Flipper Zero and HackRF, copy RFID and sub-GHz signals, and even generate your own transmissions for tactical use.
