This RF Listener Lets You Hear The RF Sources!
Have you heard about RF listeners earlier? If not, Maker Wolf has designed an RF listener that lets you hear the RF sources. When we look at the RF receivers, it usually singles out a particular frequency and decodes it. But in this project, the handheld device takes a range of...
