DIY: Pirate TV Station

Miss the good old Analog TV days? If so, you can build you very own low-power analog television transmitter and join the underground. I’m not too sure on the legality of it, but now that all the networks (at least in the US) have vacated the analog spectrum you might not be harassed. Tired of [...]

EEE 4G External Antenna Mod

I love to use Back Track as my all around security testing OS (If your not sure what Back Track is check out my little write up about it the other day). I also love to use Back Track on my EEE pc. It’s small, light, and has decent wifi range. Thanks to Larry Pesce [...]

DIY: Build An HDTV Antenna

Someone has actually posted an incredibly detailed write-up of adding everything to your EEEPC and I mean everything. Four port USB hub, internal GPS, bluetooth, 56k modem, FM audio [...]

1000 Foot Wi-FI. Yes I said 1000 Feet!

Anything that can claim to connect via Wi-Fi from 1000 feet sounds like crap to me, but the Wi-Fire by hField can actually do just that. hField claims that the Wi-Fire can increase your Wi-Fi signal by using a powerful internal directional antenna, a high sensitivity receiver and some software. If the device can actually [...]

iPhone goes *poof* during Unlocking

Looks like someone wasn’t all that careful when trying to preform a hardware unlock on an iPhone. All they did was remove 3 screws and PUFF, the dreaded blue smoke.. Story: We were so happy, all the software part was done, so we started opening the iphone. The antenna cover was a bit tricky but [...]
