title: Send/Capture Radio Wave signals with .NET
body: <p>I have an idea that came to mind out of necessity and was wondering if it is possible to develop...</p>
  <p>Clumsy as I am, I've lost my hear rate monitor watch (meaning I still have the strap to put around me, but I've lost the watch which shows you the heart rate, etc...)</p>
  <p>Rather than buying a new set, I was wondering if it would be possible to develop an application in .NET that can communicate with the strap. (If it's possible I would like to create a mobile version of it, but I'd start using a standard .NET application).</p>
  <p>So basically my question is: Is there anyway to catch the signals (radio waves if I'm not mistaking) that are being sent out? I don't really care for possible further issues (encoding, etc, ...) I just want to check if I can communicate with the device somehow.</p>
  <p>Edit: Do I need some sort of an antenna to connect to my pc? I suppose a smartphone can receive radio waves as it can tune in to the radio? I'm just guessing here.</p>
