gollark: Apparently the US was worried about GPS being used by enemy ICBMs (???) so now consumer GPS devices will refuse to work above certain speeds/heights.
gollark: You can do GPS with RTL-SDRs apparently, which gets around the weird height/speed restrictions in consumer devices.
gollark: There's interesting stuff with satellites and whatnot, but that needs a lot of hardware.
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.
