Re: P25 Security

I'd say processing power is advancing at a greater rate than cryptography, but most people still use some method of distributed processing. Crowd sourcing processing power or through outsourcing to providers like Amazon or Pico Computing would be the most common. In the end, any encryption is only a...

Re: P25 Security

Not really up for a debate on the morals side of things, but can I ask why you're resisting TETRA? I know very little about the system, but if the result of public exploitation is the leaders looking at redesigning the systems, then that's good for security, right? (Plus, do you really think anyone ...

Re: P25 Security

Also, just out of interest, since the transmissions are public it would be perfectly legal for the encrypted data that contains the key to be made public, wouldn't it? If the op25 project had decryption of P25 when the key is known, that would potentially mean that an encrypted stream could be broad...

WTB Radio with discriminator out or Winradio

I have the hand-eye coordination of a two year old and have no intention of going anywhere near a soldering iron. Anyone have a Winradio or scanner with discriminator output going for sale? :D

Re: P25 Security

The brute force cracking is interesting... might have a play with OpenP25 and some of the other tools when I get a PC radio sorted out. I know that crims have been selling dodgy radios with the NSW police code in them, but if it becomes a matter of simple brute force rather than social engineering, ...

Nagoya antenna mount

Anyone tried the Nagoya antenna mount? How are they for quality?

I need to mount an RFI VHF low antenna (the GI one), but the Mazda 3 can't have it mounted with a normal Z or L bracket due to stupid bonnet and boot design. Any other ideas if the Nagoya ones aren't that good?

Thanks guys :D
