I'm new to it and don't have the hardware yet, but no I don't think so. From BleepingComputer's site: "When Rayhunter detects suspicious network traffic [like a 2g downgrade], Orbic's default green/blue screen turns red, informing users of a potential Stingray attack."

The idea is to make a mobile setup and carry it in the car or a backpack. Especially for protests.

More device options exist as well. Rayhunter is confirmed to work on these devices.

    I made a discussion post on their GitHub requesting the information. If it does then I’m buying an Orbic right away.

    I may be stepping outside my field of knowledge but I can’t see why they don’t just build a local database of known threats to utilize offline.
