If it has a PLL; sorry no. SDR should have a wideband A/D converter and some filters. You flatten the lower bands and tune into the "mirror images" of signals above the top-range of the A/D converter's maximum sample rate instead of tuning.
It's really difficult to get voltage that high from household equipment. To make your own beam target you will also probably need to build a CVD chamber.
I have a problem with Carl Sagan. He delivers skepticism with dismissal and a know-it-all attitude, seemingly based on the assumption that popular science is a... a godsend.
Real Scientists, like Real Programmers, have a very different approach to their philosophy. They don't madly hack and slash with Occam's Razor since OR also has the little talked about, additional qualifier of the need to provide a full explanation; not just the simplest one. E.g. I think that if Carl Sagan had his way with the Standard Model, neutrino mass would be considered an error of nature and anyone who attempted to measure it he would label as a quack or a crank.
Carl Sagan and self-labeled "skeptics" are the Penn and Teller's Bullshit to everybody else's Mythbusters.
There was something like this in Helsinki a few ears ago. You got to play the games for only the entrance fee, and naturally it was very popular with kids of all ages. (5 ~ 50) Set up a safe place for teens to hang out and compete for the high-score and you'll have an arcade that actually contributes to society. Maybe a club with annual fees for the real enthusiasts.
I can't trace the source of this news. TFA mentions "an official", but who and where are a mystery. The websites of the EP and the EC make no mention of this.
Returning to the topic, if you construct an evil straw man the opposition will rise up to fight it and as a consequence take some small degree of resemblance to it. If however you encourage their developments to fit your own, positive, expectations they will also rise to this challenge to some degree. Which one of this approaches you choose, positive or negative, speaks a lot about your own disposition.
Do you want to be "knee-jerk", or "smart"? Slashdot has chewed the same nerd rage for the past 10 years without much development, and I think a lot of us would like to see improvement.
There's usually a lot of noise and very little signal at interconnects. However, signal propagates to peers while noise does not. Without carrier, there is neither signal nor noise.
Having kept up with the times, if I have to read documentation I'm doing something I'm not supposed to do. If googling and three clicks doesn't bring me to an Ubuntu user who has already had my problem and solved it, I pipe the issue to my To-Do list, AKA./dev/null. Meaning I just forget about it and go back to whining about lack of GPU accelerated flash video support.
Mouse-driven copy-paste is what it's all about. That's why nano.
It's a matter of using the right spices and serving the right wine. Some people don't like the wild taste no matter what. It seems to be a matter of what you grow up with. IMO anarchists are better baked rather than cooked. With some good company they usually turn out to be sweet, and they never hog the bong.
Set and setting always seem to be important when investigating these vague psychological artefacts. If you go in there armed to the teeth with your ghostbusting equipment and attitude, you're not going to see anything. I suggest attempting to induce the experience. Watch ghost vids on youtube, a horror flick in the cinema just prior to entering the haunted house or tell ghost stories while you're there. Do it at night and don't turn the lights on, bring a lot of candles instead. If you're still feeling too brave, the smell of rotting fish or meat is an effective trigger as well, bypassing most of the sanity wired into your brain. Imagine there are no cockroaches because the rats have eaten them. Sit down and listen very, very carefully.
Measurements
Heart rate - Record it prior to the experience, while preparing by watching the ghost flicks, and while exploring the haunted house. Perspiration - Together with heart rate, cold sweat should indicate when you have managed to bring about a state of panic. Voice recorder - What you say on the tape will likely not matter as much as your tone of voice when you examine the record. Perhaps give this device to a friend and don't clue them in on the tone of voice thing.
Then finally return to the house on a sunny day in good company. Bring a picnic, and the voice record.
Uranium enrichment centrifuges have a tolerant range and deviation within this range will not cause the isotopes to mix up. Stuxnet causes the centrifuges to deviate by such a large margin that the isotopes get very much mixed up. The rate at which the deviation occurs is also important. If the centrifuge slows from 600rpm to 580rpm in two seconds, the contents get mixed up much worse than the same slowdown over a day.
Also, the article doesn't say that Iran hasn't gotten Stuxnet out of its most sore spot. Likely it will target power production and media next, and this traffic is the sign of its controller making lists of targets.

I have decided. I am going to get a cat and an iPad with that software on it, and then I'm going to watch the world burn.

Like amazing A/D converters that can saturate an FPGA with data flow. Here's to hoping for a cheap, consumer SDR! :D ...
I'll just wait over there...
I found this video. Got $ 200M USD to spare for solving the world's problems?

I think it could do more than break even.

This doesn't help your rhetoric.

Surely you can prioritize bandwidth for something like this. The situation sounds to me like the emergency protocols of amateur radio apply.
its mission(s) are classified.
Wikipedia. Didn't examine the source but I imagine this is what they had to say to sell the thing to the beancounters.
Some of its tasks include refueling and fixing solar panels on satellites.
Satellites aren't consumer tech, they're expensive so you don'y just replace them with new ones when they gone done broken.
I would love to hear some big beard talk about satellite engineering challenges...
...assumed that it was under the purview of some standards body somewhere. It's not.
So it was magical server elves all along!
No, you don't need to worry about it. You just happen to know about it. If you did need to worry about it there was nothing you could do about it.
It a bubble popping. Not an explosion.
Also light takes longer to go from the center of the sun to its surface than from the surface to the Earth. - Just cause you didn't know.

You can have two of them working together by using polarized filters.
Does this mean I'll get an undistorted F/1 10-1000mm lens for under 1k€ in the next 5 years?
Good post, parent. Thanks. Adding my 2c:
