- alephnerd 7mo agoYes. Range, accuracy, targeting, and reducing blast radius matter. Not sure what else I can say so I'll leave it at that, and will not engage with further comments.
- jacquesm 7mo agoI'll bet you could make it in a weekend.
- DoctorOetker 7mo agoOnly if one understands the different failure modes, but either way the average HN reader shouldn't try this at home or you'll get in trouble with radio spectrum pollution.
