Faster diode, like HSMS-2850 [1], and different leg lengths (tune for 5Ghz). [1] https://datasheet4u.com/pdf-down/H/S/M/HSMS-2862_AgilentTechnologies.pdf https

- ifh-hn 10mo agoThanks. Appreciate the reply. From a brief look that might detect 2.4ghz too? Really wish I was clever enough to do electronics!
- avidiax 10mo agoDepends on the length of the antenna. I'd bet you can get a length close enough to be a quarter-wave 5Ghz and 1/2-wave 2.4ghz antenna. Just buy a 2.4/5Ghz combo antenna and slap the diodes across it.
- ifh-hn 10mo agoI love simple solution like this. It'd be cool just wandering around being able to detect mobile and stuff with a tiny led. This sort of thing is definitely why I come the HN.
- pixelpoet 10mo agoJust curious, what does your username stand for? :D
- ifh-hn 10mo agoNothing. obviously the last bit stands for hacker news. Just randomly pressed letters.
- pixelpoet 10mo agoOkay, I was just curious because you were saying nice things about HN and there's a popular abbreviation IFL for I Fucking Love, so I had to wonder!
- ifh-hn 10mo agoOh, I didn't know that and searching for ifh abbreviation on urban dictionary brings back what I think your curious about. Unfortunate coincidence. All my usernames are random strings. Good to know though.
