Could you build this?

No Building an SDR spectrum analyzer requires custom embedded C/C++ firmware, DSP algorithms, and specialized hardware programming for the ESP32-C5 microcontroller.

What it would actually take: A developer needs an ESP-IDF environment using C/C++ with deep knowledge of RF physics, Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT), and low-level 802.11 PHY layer registers. It requires reverse-engineering or utilizing low-level baseband hooks to capture raw I/Q samples across 2.4/5 GHz bands and streaming them via serial or WebSockets to a visualization frontend.
