Not exactly an SDR- Targeted towards the sub ghz ranges. Your 300s'mhz, 400s'mhz, 800s'mhz, lastly 900s'mhz are the general frequency ranges that the device is particularly geared for.
For those who lack the experience, may associate them to children's toys, garage door openers, "gadgets", key fobs... In fact, many technologies utilize some function or another that falls into those portions of the RF spectrum...
I guess partially due to Flipper, making it out to just an area to dabble in... splash about with the many modules ... but....that previous sentence up back there hinted at the powers that lie within- "key fobs"..."garage door openers"... for those with the necessity to do so, a tool such as this can find itself very useful...
We underestimate how much of the current infrastructure around us is utilizing such technology - to communicate "slow down, children playing"- even control traffic- many signs- entrances to buildings- elevators- gates- lighting- the sprinkler systems installed in city parks- car key fobs- I could go on... so, now do we have it drilled in our heads, if previously your bias was in the form of sub g just a place to dabble about- I hope its understood that some serious work is done with- there's no dabbling about when we can acquire control to so much around us.
It's no wonder why there is a "civilian" version, and then a version for "law enforcement", and another version where you have to be vetted in- either through credentials or have some one on the inside confirm your clearance.
You see, it isn't just the device that is the star of the show... the device is just that, now pair it up with the many years of insider knowledge, specifics, a catalog of frequencies, a knowledge base of all there is when it comes to sub g- the device is complimented with an incredible array of tools, which include a large and ever growing data base compromising of.... think of it as almost having that collection of keys, the janitor key set- the abillity to open everything and all- It is quite remarkable really.
The information, tools and the device surpas my amazement- and, I'm just a "civilian". Sometimes you can bump into some knowledge base where it's been left out in the wild for the public to see...only to be quickly put back away under lock and key.. there are reasons for the tiered capabilities. Think James Bond, but, JAMES BOND.
