Title: RF equipment
Post by: rabble on September 17, 2011, 12:30 am
Hello there! In the future we may start offering RF (radio frequency) equipment for sale. Specifically, Universal Software Radio Peripheral kits (USRP) and related components such as antennas or amplifiers along with USRP daughterboards . If you are interested, please post a reply or PM me so we can get a gauge on the demand for such equipment.


from wired.com:  "One of Ettus' USRPs, with the right daughterboards and radio software, can capture FM, read GPS, decode HDTV, transmit over emergency bands and open garage doors."

We have Ettus equipment for now and can stock anything from data-alliance.net if needed. It isn't impossible that we start selling homemade boards in the future, though.

What exactly could one do with such devices? Could I hack cell phones?

Hell yeah we need all the cool hardware here!

I like seeing more things here like lab equipment, mail packaging products...

Simple things like gloves, syringes, etc... We need everything here we cant buy with BTC..cuz it sure is a bitch to exchange it and lose half of it in the process.

+1 anyone who has hookups should be selling here on SR, regardless of whether or not it's considered contraband.

If you have the right daughterboard you can make your USRP act like a GSM tower and intercept calls.

May I point you to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Software_Radio_Peripheral for further reading.

see alot of us havent been exposed to this kind of thing too much beyong regular radio scanning.

If you could put together a package with a specific use maybe with some TuTs, those things would fly off the shelf, especially one that would intercept calls.

We will consider use-specific packages along with tutorials.

I agree.
That would be interesting as a hobby or something to play around - gadget show.
And to add, its great to have legal thing as that can give someone in trouble as reasonable doubt for purchase from SR.
