Is Universal Radio Hacker good?

• Goodwatch – A Ham Radio Wristwatch

  You don't need a license to explore and have fun. Cheap, firmware hackable HTs are hawt, in particular the Quansheng UV-K5,K6. Tons of SDR receivers out there to explore, and many extremely exiting transceiver projects out there also. Just so much: https://github.com/jopohl/urh http://kiwisdr.com/public/ https://meshtastic.org/docs/hardware/devices/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Flipper Zero: Multi-Tool Device for Geeks

  >> or somewhat expensive and complex SDR I don’t think that’s as accurate today as it used to be. On the hardware side there are tons of options very cheaply available - iirc the flipper uses the c1100 (or a number like that) it’s a popular cheap chip and it’s well documented and interfaces easily with arduino. More accessibly, lime mini SDRs are cheap but there’s quite a few alternatives too. On the software side... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What is your favorite thing to do on a flipper zero? I’m getting mine in a few days!!!

  You should check out Universal Radio Hacker. Source: about 2 years ago

• Any methods of making .wav recordings from an RTL-SDR in SDR# usable on the Flipper?

  URH can read flipperzero sub files and can export from wav to sub... Https://github.com/jopohl/urh. Source: over 2 years ago

• Repeating weirdness on 1897MHz, strong signal with weird side swirls. Australia, so this range is for DECT, but it's not, is it? Captured on 60m of speaker wire, maybe that's why it's so odd?

  Throw the recording at UniversalRadioHacker and see what it does with it! Source: over 2 years ago

• CubicSDR with RTL2832U cannot set 434.650MHz sample rate

  I dont have much knowledge on decoding a signal from scratch but try URH - universal radio hacker here. It might be able to do what you need. Source: over 2 years ago

• I can stream anything on a radio frequency

  It's useful for transmitting digital RF signals to control household stuff, eg. Ceiling fans or whatever. You'd want to also look into rtl-sdr and Universal Radio Hacker. Source: over 2 years ago

• Linux: software: auto detect digital modulation type.

  Tried tool https://github.com/jopohl/urh and it does not get too much information. I am expecting to find something similar to wireshark - it can detect protocols in traffic and highligh different kind of fields in packet headers. Source: over 2 years ago

• Signal decoding bounty?

  Try getting familiar with urh (https://github.com/jopohl/urh) and save your money 😉. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Home control rolling shutter 868.3Mhz What modulation is this?

  (Recommend URH for analyzing wireless protocols, it supports parse signal with different encodings along with encoding error rate, and you can choose one that looks best). Source: almost 3 years ago

• Where can one contract someone to do some signal decoding?

  I can't help with the personnel, but I'll just mention a program I've used a few times called Universal Radio Hacker that I believe will demodulate both ASK and FSK signals (among others). Source: almost 3 years ago

• Help finding Flume Water meter on 915MHz?

  Try Universal Radio Hacker (GitHub) - nice piece of software for protocol analysis. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Reversing 2.4GHz Remote Control

  Wheni first stumbled across https://github.com/jopohl/urh (universal radio hacker) I couldn’t believe my luck. I’ve done stuff like this manually before (as in just collecting all the bits and then trying to ascribe meaning, e.g. https://github.com/cleanflight/cleanflight/issues/1125#issuecomment-173776093 ) but I used URH to reverse my bbq temperature sensors. I have an alexa skill that shows the last 20... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Help a beginner, please. How to decode an ANT+ signal (1 Mbps, GFSK, 160 kHz deviation)

  Thanks... yeah, the dreaded learning curve. Please note that I'm not against learning even hard to use programs, it's more that I want to invest the time in the one that can do what I want. Your answer is very helpful, because that helps eliminate 2 candidates from the "learning pool". I'm currently making some progress with URH https://github.com/jopohl/urh. I can see clearly the signal, and apply FSK... Source: over 3 years ago

• Convert Radio Waves to Bits (RF Demodulation)

  Hey cool video! If you haven’t already, check out Universal Radio Hacker, which pretty much combines most of the steps you did with Inspectrum and Gnuradio. https://github.com/jopohl/urh. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Help transmitting VDL Mode 2 messages

  Sorry but (re-)transmitting VDL2 messages is really a bad idea. Spoofing ADSB/ACARS/GPS/GSM signals is totally out-of-law in most countries. If you want to retransmit previously recorded signal, you just have to record and replay IQ using hackRF tools or use URH. Perhaps tx_sdr will give you more clues to learn encoding/decoding, using rtl_433 as companion to decode. Use it on 434MHz (ISM band), which is... Source: about 4 years ago
