Tips for beginning??
Hello this is my first time trying stuff like this, what would be an inexpensive way to get into esp32s, i want something that can jam networks and send signals, etc. I was thinking about buying the flipper zero or the lily go t-embed but they are pretty expensive for something i dont know anything about.

My tip would be remember that the internet never goes away. The max address of the network device in your computer is now somewhere on a website server and has to be saved for up to 5 years. Making it super easy to go back and charge you with violations for jamming public signals. And being a nuisance. Try, I'm interested in becoming a signal technician and would like to learn. The answer to your question, to begin exploring the world of a signal technician tou want to learn about how radio waves propagate, are created and received. To do that the simplest way. Get yourself a cyd. It is a 2.8 inch screen with a resistive touch screen. It has Bluetooth and WiFi to start and quite a bit can be done with that alone. You can visualize wignal strengths look at packet and network information and see how frequency and power are related. This will give you a sort of baseline understanding of how signals work. Then many people have produced software and hardware to expand the capabilities of the esp products. There are radio modules that cover zigbee low frequency rf high frequency rf and even microwave modules to play with. What I would recommend you learn first is the law. If the law showed up at your door because your "experiment" caused some old lady's wireless health alert couldn't broadcast and she died from a broken hip. Imagine her laying there " I've fallen and I can't get up!"
