Title : RTL-SDR and HackRF Used in Mr. Robot – A TV Drama
About Hacking

Content :  A few readers have written in to let us know the
role SDRs played in the last season of "Mr. Robot". The show
which is available on Amazon Prime  is about "Mr. Robot", a young
cyber-security engineer by day and a vigilante hacker by night. The
show has actual cyber security experts on the team, so whilst still
embellished for drama, the hacks performed in the show are fairly
accurate, at least when compared to other TV shows. 

Title : Building a FossaSat-1 LoRa IoT Ground Station

Content :   FossaSat-1  is a recently launched open source
"picosatellite" with an onboard LoRa repeater designed for Internet
of Things (IoT) communications. It was launched via the Electron
Rocket in New Zealand on December 6. At only 5 x 5 x 5cm in size and
250g in weight, a picosatellite is a tiny satellite that fits in your
hand and can be affordably built and launched for around US$40k.  

Title : Passive Doppler Aircraft Scatter with a VOR Beacon and
an RTL-SDR

Content :  Over on YouTube Meine Videokasetten has posted a
video showing how he's been using an RTL-SDR to detect aircraft
landing and taking off via the scatter on a VOR beacon. VOR
(aka VHF Omnidirectional Range) is a navigational beacon that is
transmitted between 108 MHz and 117.95 MHz from a site usually
at an airport. Although as it is an older technology it is slowly
being phased out in some places.  

Title : Starlink GRAVES Radar Reflections Received with SDR

Content :  Over on YouTube Jan de Jong who is based in Germany has
posted a short slide show video showing that he received reflections
of the GRAVES space radar from the new Starlink satellites. 

Title : A new VOR Decoder Written in Python

Content :  Thank you to Martin Bernardi for writing in and  sharing
with us his new VOR decoder that is written in Python . The program
decodes VOR from a wav file, so any SDR such as an RTL-SDR can be
used to record the audio initially. 

Title : Testing the SDRplay RSPdx in HDR Mode on NDB and Broadcast
AM DX

Content :  One of the selling points of the  recently released
SDRplay RSPdx  is it's special High Dynamic Range (HDR) mode which
can be used to improve signal performance for frequencies below 2
MHz. This mode should be especially useful in RF environments where
there are strong signals that can overload the SDR and desensitize
reception on weaker stations. 

Title : The Toosheh Project: An Outernet-like Service for Iran and
the Middle East

Content :  If you've been following our blog over the years,
you'll know that we've mentioned the  "Outernet" (now known as
"Othernet")  service a few times. Othernet is a satellite service
that wants to provide one way data such as news, weather, audio,
books and Wikipedia articles to those in areas with poor, censored
or no internet connection. Previous iterations made use of home
satellite TV equipment, then L-band (with RTL-SDR receivers) and
now the Ku-band with LoRa receivers. Currently it's only available
in North America and Europe. 

Title : Solving a Frequency Hopping CTF Challenge with Aliasing

Content :  At this years BSides Ottawa security conference,
Clayton Smith was tasked with setting up a wireless "Capture the
Flag" (CTF) competition . CTF competitions generally consist of a
mystery signal that participants need to figure out how to decode
with an SDR such as an RTL-SDR.

Historically Tcl has always stored all intermediate results as strings.
(With 8.0 they're rethinking that.  Of course, Perl rethought that from
the start.)
