Dirt Boxes, Stingray and "The Prophet" SIGINT Systems

Detailed information from military and intelligence producers describes the use of "dirt boxes" (DRT) and "Stingray" devices for scooping up cell phone data from planes and vehicles. A former military member explains "The Prophet," a SIGINT system used in Afghanistan and Iraq for radio intercept and direction finding.
