New meeting spot: Brewing Grounds for Change

We have switched places again, but i hope for the last time. The new venue is Brewing Grounds for Change on Farwell Avenue. For directions or more info check out the Meetings page. Another new thing we are starting is we are asking people that plan on coming to meetings to bring $5 or a non-perishable food item. The money will go toward paying for prizes “the ones we give away at meetings/events”, events and other stuff dc414. The food will go to the food pantry 🙂 We will see you at the next meeting!

May 2011 meeting

Another awesome meeting with dc414 this month. dw5304 pwned us all with his GPS jammer, and a ardunio RFID reader. The laser mic from last months meeting was busted out for a while and ngharo brought his oscilloscope which we used to mess with the RFID reader. Vladimir had some killer lasers, one of which we used to light a cig 😀 Check out the vids below to see some of the fun 🙂

New meeting place for dc414.

We will be holding the next dc414 at a new location. See the meetings page for more info on the location. It should be a more hacker friendly place and it has tons more space for us to move around in. Be sure to come hang out with the dc414 crew, do some hacking and get a chance to win free junk from dc414!! See you there!!

Aprils meeting run down.

Last nights meeting was not a let down, dw5403 and Matt wowed us with killer demonstrations of a laser mic setup “pics below” and Van eck phreaking!! (Video). dw also brought his DIY 3 port powerless hub and gave us a little demo of ssl strip. Matt busted out all massive lock collection and we all got to play around a little bit. We also saw the release of ODiG! Bellow is a pic of this months winner of junk from dc414 “dstarar”. (more pics HERE, i took more but they got all fucked up some how)

Last nights meeting.

Last nights meeting was great as always! Trying out the new spot went well, it was a little iffy at the start but everything worked out good. Lots of new faces which is always welcome and plenty of chatter. Lots of lock picking mayhem, as always, and dw attempted to wow us with some wifi magic but was being plague by gremlins, maybe i can get him to stop by and blog about it. By the next meeting he promised to have all the bugs worked out and give it another go, i cant wait!! I didnt take any pictures this time around, sorry i was busy 😛 ngh did some war driving on our way to the spot, about 47 miles a-b, and found a ton of aps. Ill upload the log when ever ngharo gets them to me. Ok thats it, enjoy and i hope to see everyone at the next meeting!

UPDATE: 2.7.11 – Here is the log from ngharo’s drive. Over a thousand aps in that log 😀 A big thanx to ngharo!!
