Ask Eric Blossom about Software-Defined Radio

Posted by michael on Monday September 9, 2002 @05:45AM from the modern-crystal-radio dept.

Eric Blossom is an electrical engineer with a history of working with radio and communications security. He gave a presentation at the recent H2K2 conference about his work with GNU Radio, which is, bar none, the single most exciting software project in existence today. (Imagine computing devices that communicate seamlessly across the entire electromagnetic spectrum.) As usual, we'll forward some of the best questions to Eric and post his responses when we receive them.

This is one project where hacking the code can kill people or land you in jail. Don't broadcast on the wrong frequency!

Keep this away from radio telescopes!
