Over on his YouTube channel, sn0ren has uploaded a video showing his experience with the KrakenSDR. If you weren’t already aware, KrakenSDR is our 5-channel coherent radio based on RTL-SDRs, and it can be used for applications like radio direction finding. It can currently be purchased from Crowd Supply or Mouser.
In the video, sn0ren explains radio direction finding in general and then goes on to show how to set up and use KrakenSDR. Sn0ren writes:
Wireless communication is inherently anonymous. There is no way of knowing who transmitted a signal if they do not identify. And there is no way of knowing where that signal is transmitted from. Unless you actively track it down. KrakenSDR is a radio direction finding device that uses an array of antennas and synchronised receivers to track down the position of a given radio transmission and lead you directly to its physical location.
