gollark: I got an RTL-SDR ages ago but didn't have much to do with it, so I decided to look at the blog and still don't have much to do with it, but read about cool stuff occasionally.
gollark: I've only read about direction finding a bit on the RTL-SDR blog and such, don't know much about it.
gollark: > Is this gona be one of those I Know They (always Capital They) have bugged my room and I need to stop them form reading my thoughts." kind of thing?> no
gollark: I think there's actually a standard for 900MHz WiFi or something, but it hasn't really taken off.
gollark: If the 2.4GHz bands older (most...) WiFi uses was bigger we would have less of a problem with interference or whatever in busy places.
