It’s 2018 and many people are still using unencrypted wireless communications in critical systems. We will review how to build a robust and open signals intelligence (SIGINT) platform. As a proof of concept we show the platform capturing publicly accessible radio bands and some basic analysis of that data. The talk will focus on how we demodulate, decode and analyze data across many chunks of the spectrum using a Raspberry Pi. We will cover some SDR-related design and development issues, discuss DSP and other sundries in basic detail. We’ll also make a few observations about unencrypted communications today, using data captured in midtown Manhattan. Finally, there will be a discussion of some other applications that the same capture infrastructure can be used for.
Team MILK (Phil Vachon (@pvachonnyc) and Andrew Wong) is a spectrum-curious duo of signal hoarders. Fascinated by the unexpected order in the chaos of the aether, they’ve built a platform to capture, decode, and analyze various radio signals to satisfy their data fetish. Their current project started with them looking at public radio data sources, covering multiple geographic areas. There’s a good chance they spent too much time staring into the abyss. Greets to the remaining IRC refuges. Hello to the Nefarious Five, we own the night.

That was a nice Hackers reference at the end. I chuckled at most of the jokes but that was especially nice.👍
Was employed in MOC 291 during cold war as signal analyst loved the talk well done.
Where was this?
A lot of two way scanner fans are praying for the ability to intercept cell phones like we did in the 90s. Also to descramble police transmissions as well.
If you've not already heard, tetra has been broken, look up tetraburst ;)
Superb talk , thank you
Deleted my old comment. Just saw the Declass date. My bad
