Those of you who caught my coverage of the DEFCON WiFi Shoot-Out from a couple of weeks ago, here’s a cool follow-up. Frank Keeney of Pasadena Networks (one of the sponsors of the event) has put together a page detailing the two afternoons he spent watching the winning team set-up.
The team had spent much of their summer break from University to build and test their equipment. With surplus satellite dishes scrounged from their home area, building a custom trailer for the remote station, assembling all the scaffolding for the base station and testing. The teams talents in welding, mathematics, electronics, ham radio, programming, and Linux were all necessary to break their previous record.
Frank’s got a bunch of great photos and a video along with the topographic data and screen captures of the radio shot from his Radio Mobile software. Lots of geeky goodness.
Thanks Frank!
