Luckily there are only few geeks that know how to play with it! Airplanes communication with control towers is not encrypted, trains communicate on selected channels but traffic is not encrypted as well. There are already known cases when some kids decided to change tracks, several catastrophes have already happened… Come and see what nowadays radio communication is about!
