With such thoroughly detailed, illustrated, and cited/attached links, it's really is getting harder to claim "ignorance" to this increasingly prevalent aspect of modern warfare. Thank you for writing and article in the most layman's terms possible. You can tell a person knows their craft when they can explain the complicated to the masses. Truly outstanding article.

1stLt Scher - Excellent article - thank you for being an "scrounge engineer". That is what I call Marines that are going to find ways to cover the gaps with bailing wire and bubble gum. I executed a project similar in nature to what you have outlined with MCWL back in 2018 called Tactical Electro-Magnetic Spectrum Operations System (TEMSOS). We used HACKRF, and created an app for android - at the time called Raptor-Tak that would allow us to see the spectrum. I would highly advise you to try and find someone from the Marine Corps Spectrum Integration Lab (MCSIL) at Point Mugu Ca. That team is responsible for the Intrepid Tiger (AN/ALQ-231) program and have a android app - that is Govt only that I think would help your efforts for the Marines. The Ukraine/Russia war is indicative of things to come and it will take Marines like you - to bring our people home. If you need anything please look me up on LinkedIn. linkedin.com/in/joshuapowell36
