 These bands therefore have a much higher probability of carrying our signal candidate than the rest of the available RF spectrum, so let's target the usual ISM suspects first. In Europe 433 and 868 MHz are commonly used for remote controls (even cranes), data/sensor telemetry (weather stations and the like) and much more.  These bands therefore have a much higher probability of carrying our signal candidate than the rest of the available RF spectrum, so let's target the usual ISM suspects first.

-The whole process took a little less than an hour, just using GNU Radio and a HackRF (could have been done with an RTL-SDR device as well. The next steps will be covered in Episode II, where we can try to reproduce this pattern with a transmitter we'll build with GNU Radio. This will also serve as a chance to try something I'd like to call **Full Band Replay Attack**. +The whole process took a little less than an hour, just using GNU Radio and a HackRF (could have been done with an RTL-SDR device as well.

-Instead of trying to find the specific frequency and modulation and to build a transmitter for it, it should be equally feasible to just capture the whole ISM band and try to send it as it was received (replay). This would be a very crude approach requiring almost no knowledge but could be disastrously fast and effective when applied successfully, in many situations.+**Full Band IQ Replay Attack**.

 +Instead of trying to find specific frequencies and modulations in order to build a narrow target transmitter, it should be equally feasible to just "record" a wide target band by capturing 10MSps raw IQ data and try to send this raw IQ data as it was received (replay). This would be a very crude approach requiring almost no knowledge about the specific implementation but could be disastrously fast and effective when applied successfully, in many situations.
