I wonder how often on live DJ gigs is there a talkback style RF channel open with what is going out to the monitors/amps, and how plausible it is to bring a not-bomb-looking phone+SDR setup to dump it during a gig. In unrelated news, I can't wait for a more clean version of whatever this ID to come out

I know that actual talkback channels on gigs are just there for the taking, a friend posted some very funny recordings of various gigs's talkback banter a few years ago

@benjojo depending on the budget of the production, some newer systems are digital with aes encryption. But in most cases you can bring a few beltpack receivers for common frequency ranges and something like a tinySA to find the used frequency, then dump them. That is done quite often if you look at bootleg recordings on YouTube of IEM mixes.
