When I was in the reserves (in an era of dinosaurs and stone axes), the regulars were using encrypted, frequency-agile radios. They were hard to localize unless you were so close that they were the loudest thing on the airwaves.
Using Starlink from a fixed location Could Be Bad. --dave On 2024-02-23 13:13, Eugene Chang via Starlink wrote: On Feb 23, 2024, at 3:23 AM, Alexandre Petrescu via Starlink <starlink@lists.bufferbloat.net><mailto:starlink@lists.bufferbloat.net> wrote: Le 23/02/2024 à 13:04, Dave Taht via Starlink a écrit : https://twitter.com/Megaconstellati/status/1760996758363029734 In general, two can play at this game, and given the low cost and good range, and relative ease of building a sensor for the starlink frequencies, I see starlinks fading from the battlefield. For that matter, nearly every form of electronic communication, be it wifi, or 5G. Fiber or laser will be used instead. But laser could be blinded by counter-lasers, fiber could be cut by scissors, etc. Measures, counter-measures, counter-counter-measures and so on, equally well on each of these media. Alex The point is some media can be remotely detected and targeted. Laser is harder to detect than wireless (radio). Fiber is even harder to be detected remotely.
