I think so too. After playing around with 2.4ghz baby monitors, i recognize that WiFi interference almost immediately

Is this beacon associated with the Broadcast SSID setting found on some APs?

@@user2C47 yeah. your ap basically screams „im here, these are my details“ every 100ms

@@H3wastooshort oh look a rabbit hole! i wonder where it goes...

@@pyromaniaman you're right, not just the AP does it, but also "client" devices. If your phone isn't connected to an AP but its WiFi adapter is ON, it will scream the list of SSIDs stored in its memory to check if any of them are available. This means "hackers" can get your personal SSID list very easily and find APs with "hidden" SSIDs. That's a good example about why security through obscurity isn't very good

That's crazy. Imagine hearing weird noises all over the place and no one else can, and you find out it's coming from your TEETH. Yikes

Collogue

@@herobrine1847 It didn’t even show that that was misspelled, because is it turns out, collogue is an actual word. Anyway its fixed now

that's not possible, this is only possible in devices with audio amplifiers and speakers.

@@beepbleepboopincorrect, it’s completely possible with am radio. You can brush leaves and such against fences which are close to transmitters and it will play audio. You can do it with tons of things. One of the most famous examples are the bed springs in houses close to transmitters. You’re right though, FM it’s impossible.

Nowadays most electronics are shielded against this though. Except maybe dollar store headphones or cheap guitar amplifiers

@@crunchykarsten8765 yep I can definitely vouch for the guitar amps. i jam out to snoop dog and usher on my local rnb station whenever I practice 💀

@@jwaj lmaoooooo my condolences

@@crunchykarsten8765 nawww no need to be sorry 💀 it’s a valid vibe

my keyboard is weirdly enough only affected by my phones nfc

This, exactly. Not radiation, RFI.

@@d455ave RF is a type of non-ionizing radiation

​@@d455ave what does the R in RFI stand for I wonder.

@@notstonks20 radio

@@notstonks20 Interference

I had the same thought! Your keyboard was totally getting nails from that cargo ship, my guy!

Modern RWR equipment however changes this up in a much better way. The signal processor checks to see the source's behavior to tell you if the contact has locked you or if something new has shown up. I like that they remain shrill beeps, though.

Nails, 2 o' clock low

maybe you're confusing "radiation" with "ionizing radiation", "radiation" is a broad term that includes the heat your radiator gives off. Cosmic radiation is ionizing, but radiation from RADAR/radio/WiFi/BT/mobile data aren't ionizing, they won't cause you any harm.

@@uncreativename5736 I'm aware not all radiation is the same and not all of it is dangerous. The unsettling part of my comment had to do with our inability to see most of it. Visible light is a pretty narrow slice of the electromagnetic spectrum. But you're right, I was using radiation in general not limiting to ionizing radiation. I'd be lying if I could remember the difference without first looking it up.

@@uncreativename5736 There is also plenty of non-ionizing cosmic radiation. What do you think the field of radio astronomy deals with? The most famous example is probably the cosmic microwave background but really almost every active object is space emits some radio waves too. The image of the supermassive black hole in the M87 galaxy was also captured using radio waves. (And technically, even visible light from stars is a form of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation.)

@@TheAngelsHaveThePhoneBox you said "is" instead of "in", your argument is instantly invalid and I win.

Just sample them from this video then

@@Engineer9736 The sounds are talked over some of the time or have other audio interference, and plus having direct control of how it’s interacting with the environment will allow me to actually intentionally make sounds that I can work with.

Check out ETHER by SOMA laboratory, might be something you could be interested in :)

You can get a microphone to pick this kind of stuff up, I forgot what they're called but I got one like 10 years ago and it's still a fun tool

Try an all-frequency radio maybe I've got many of these noises before.

I quite like that sound, so sometimes I listen to Mario Piu - Communication. At the time I was so impressed someone actually sampled it to make a dance track, but at the same time it was annoying.

I recently pulled out my old Nokia 3390 and popped a sim in it. My modern Corsair usb headset picks up the interference, but you have to hold the phone very close to them. I should try it out on some more things before 2G gets shut down at the end of 2022.

my Yamaha HS8 active speakers pick up interference whenever my phone drops the 4G connection

It's sounds like GSM and LTE to me. Which would make sense. At home he is only hearing GSM from a nearby phone and 4G from his I belive

lmaoo same

Ah yes my favorite song *microwave*

waves are waves, if the data frequency is under 20khz then audacity works for it :)

​​​@@experimentalcyborgcaptured here are electric field disruptions at low frequencies caused by a varying strength in the signal, which is why you can't decode GSM just from the phone interference sound, as it is merely a square wave caused by the phone transmitter turning on and off rapidly This is also why it's so easy to pick up AM radio with a bunch of unusual stuff when you're close to a transmitter

@@kreuner11 wtf are you on about? GSM is FM (0.3GMSK) which are just waves. idk if audacity can handle the ~140khz bandwidth, but if it can, you can definitely use it to decode GSM.

Yes, it's like an acousticom without the lights. If anyone made them with working intensity meter LEDs and sold them cheaper than real EMF detectors I'd buy one.

"EMF" is a crackpot term.

@@brushhaidinger2506 Electro magnetic frequency reads as it reads. Why freak?

I recall watching a video about a guy hacking into his car and he could even hack some of the more advanced ones.

@@daanhoek1818 with enough expertise almost anything can be hacked. Newer car remotes use rolling codes which means you can't replay the same code again. One exploit involves jamming the unlock signal and capturing it for use later. It's known as a rolljam attack.

I saw a vid of a couple guys steal a Rolls-Royce by using a big antenna to pick up the signal from the key fob and amplifying it to trick the car into thinking the fob was there

so what you are saying is that you can use a microwave oven as a high power wifi antenna

@@lukeonuke Indeed, if the only thing you intend to do is high power jamming.

Some of the "radiation" he detected was actually 60 hz magnetic fields. When he said that the radiation has been here since ever he was lying. Old style bulbs are much safer the bulb produces only minimal microwaves, what he was really detecting there was the magnetic field. This microwave radiation from wifi is not safe, it is absolutely unnatural and unnecessary for the body, avoid it.

@@mattbanks3517 Look at 1:23 ... European power plugs, so 50hz 😉 Seeing the Ziggo modem, it's probably The Netherlands. But there will be other frequencies live as well due to cellular/radio/wifi leaking out of a building. Or maybe he had a wifi hotspot on on his phone.

@@lukeonuke Those antennas on news vans are microwave radio transmitters that can send signals back to the news station. Some cell phone towers use microwave radio transmissions between towers or other stations.

Exactly the same comparisons that had occurred to me =)

I hope he gets huge soon he's been out of for 9 years now LOL

Can still be done..

With enough button presses, you could figure out the key the fob and car use to generate their rolling codes.

only if the car hears the code

Yes there are devices made specifically to pickup all kinds of electronic interference for sound design purposes :) (Don't know the names)

@@PosyMusic Wow, thanks for the quick reply! I discovered your channel the other day and I'm in love with your style. Thanks for your brilliant work 🙏🙏

It works near the pickups too. Sometimes I would play a song over my bass pickups, after a ringtone accidentally got amplified during band practice.

What?!? Ghost detectors actually detect things that aren't ghosts? *surprised Pikachu*

I feel sad for all the people who get scammed into thinking a data transmission is a ghost.

Some of the "radiation" he detected was actually 60 hz magnetic fields. When he said that the radiation has been here since ever he was lying. Not8ce how the noise the bulb made was only auidable at close distance, unlike the wifi which were at long distances. This means that the bulb produces only minimal microwaves, what he was really detecting there was the magnetic field. This microwave radiation from wifi is not safe, it is absolutely unnatural and unnecessary for the body, avoid it.

@@mattbanks3517 You need a lot of microwave to damage your body in a meaningfull way. Light and radio signals are all the same things : photons, electromagnetic particles. The only difference is the wavelength they have. Microwave is a relatively high wavelength (low energy) compared to visible light for example. Harmful waves of light start at the UV light (after the visible spectrum), it's the beginning of ionizing radiation and ends with gamma rays that are very harmful. Only ionizing radiation carries enough energy to damage living tissue and DNA. Otherwise you need to use pure body absorption as heat (so you need a lot more power, over the 100W) to impact someones life. Most microwaves used by phones and stuff use amounts of power that are insignificant enough to not impact our bodies. So as long as you do not expose yourself to a microwave oven (generally over 500 W), you'll be fine.
