Do you dispute that de facto these products work?
- kube-system 9mo agoYes I have spent thousands of dollars and months testing them. You can cut off GPS and high frequency cell spectrum pretty easily. Most cell spectrum is effectively attenuated by good quality professional RF enclosures designed for those frequencies. 2.4 ghz signals like wifi (with good quality radios) are hard to attenuate to the point where they can’t connect to other radios nearby, even with very expensive RF test enclosures. If you’re trying to block against an unknown threat you are fucked. If someone wanted to back door a baseband they’d probably make it transmit at low speeds and low frequencies to be resistant to attenuation.
- refulgentis 9mo agoJesus. That sucks. Thanks for sharing, fascinating stuff.
- digiown 9mo agoWhat kind of RF can travel through a few mm of metal?
- kube-system 9mo agoIf you blindly “put metal around” an antenna, most of the time, you have just created another antenna! Go put a phone in a filing cabinet and call it. It will ring.
- bigyabai 9mo agoI will, I've got two and neither one can shut off a longwave FM radio.
