Rarely does a person come along that I would recommend as highly as Dio. A unique set of skills that is becoming harder and harder to find in tech these days.

@ai6yr the amount of "tactical" antennas that are just a $4 binding post adapter and a few dollars worth of wire is insane. That olive drab 3d printer filament must be what costs so much.

MISINFORMATION FROM THE AMERICAN-ISRAELI WAR IN IRAN:

If you see a downed Shahed drone, do not touch it.

FALSE. The fear is that your scent will confuse the wounded drone's parents who will then refuse to care for it. This is not true. If you see a downed Shahed drone, wrap it in a dry blanket, and give it fresh water and your wifi password. It will recover in time, and be eternally grateful.

@ai6yr I have had very good results with my Tecsun PL-330 with the built in antenna. Optional antenna port allows use with those retractable shortwave antennas as well.

I really want a QMX radio but don't want to wait 5-6 months for a completed unit. I wonder how bad I could possibly mess up building it myself.

It's been extremely hard to keep this one under wraps.

I just published a new blog post, where one weird string that looks like a cookie value turned out to be a whole cryptostealer and database wiping operation.

I spent some late nights on this one, and am a little bit ridiculously proud of the work I did.

One weird payload turned out to be a loose thread on an active hacking operation.
