Re: How to detect signal If they had line of sight, a mast probably wont help. You could just be too far away from the transmitter (miles) |

Ham's actually do use 2.4ghz for "moonbouncing" signals, It's also referred to as "EME" for Earth Moon Earth..
Granted it's a whole different ballgame shooting a signal over ground vs the perfect line of sight example I have given.. But with the rather intense and sometimes huge antenna's or antenna arrays, it can be done.. |

A 27 dBi solid Parabolic at 5.8 GHz is about 20" in diameter and weighs about a pound... -- Once we IPv6 enable every device on the Internet we will have toasters, baby monitors, and security cameras joining the bot nets which today are populated only by idiots that can not refrain from clicking, "Yes I would like to see those titties..."
