Searching for a signal source in Stalcraft is a separate mechanic associated with the use of various radar equipment to find buried resources at points that at times appear in different locations. However, when going through the story, whether it’s a branch of bandits or stalkers, there is a separate task associated with the search for a signal and familiarity with the necessary equipment for this purpose – SAC v1 and narrow band detector “Buryat”, which will be obtained in the course of missions. It will be helpful in finding the source of the signal in the mission “Receiver” – for stalkers and “In search of a receiver” – for bandits.

How to Search for Signals in Stalcraft
It would be best if you started with the mechanics of the mechanics itself because, in addition to the plot, you will still encounter it when you see new anomalies on the map and want to find their source. However, a general understanding will also come in handy for the quest with the receiver in Stalcraft. The most important thing to know is how to handle the SAC v1 anomaly locator, which is necessary to detect a signal in an area.
- You come to a point where a signal is spotted; activate this device by pressing the X key.
- Watch for the light next to “Signal” to blink green periodically.
- Set the scanning area to “Small” or “Medium” (the battery drain rate, among other things, depends on it).
- Turn on the scanning with the toggle switch and wait until the scanning bar is at least half full, after which you can turn the toggle switch off.
- If an anomaly is found, a “Search” button will appear next to the “Signal” button. Press this button to start using the Buryat Narrow Band Detector.
The next step is just the very use of sensors to find the source of the signal. In Stalcraft there are several of them, but at the stage of passing the story quest, probably you will only have access to “Buryat”. In the future, you can purchase the Elbrus, a more accurate and convenient sensor, and then use it to search for anomalies outside of the story. As for the use of “Buryat”, you take it out of the inventory and look at the screen. It is necessary to find out the correct direction of the point where the source is located. When this direction is found, orange waves will appear on the equipment screen. Go forward and make sure that these waves do not disappear because they show that the source is right on the way.
When on the right side of the game screen, the current progress of finding the signal will be displayed. Initially, it will be 0%, but as you get closer, the progress gradually increases. There is no time limit for the story quest, but random events have a timer, after which the anomaly disappears.
When the progress fills up to 100%, it will notify you that you have found a signal. It is buried somewhere in the ground, there is a box or other item nearby that you can search and get a reward.
Find the Source of the Signal for the Bandits
In Stalcraft, there are two game factions, each of which has a task in the branch of the story to find the signal, but the points on the map and further development of events are different. The bandits are required to find the source to get acquainted with Kaa and then begin to solve his riddles. However, first, you need to complete the quest “In Search of the Receiver”, which implies the task “find the source of the signal” in Stalcraft. To do this, find the mark on the map and go to the desired location.
Use the equipment to search for the signal, the parsing of which was above. Activate the search and go to the point to find the house on the base. Not so long ago, a ladder was added to one of its sides, which you need to climb to find the Kaa in the attic.
Start a dialog with him and read all the lines. The task “In search of the receiver” is now completed, and the following task is automatically accepted.
Find the Source for Stalkers
Playing for the stalkers, you will also encounter a story task with a similar name “Receiver”. The essence of the execution remains the same and requires the use of equipment to complete the task. First you go to a point on the map, where the quest begins, there you activate the search for a signal via SAC v1, find it and take out of the inventory “Buryat”.
Follow the signal to find a lonely tree in the swamp. It is near it that the search percentages will fill up to 100%. It would be best if you spun around it a bit to find the point where the story character, Kaa, is sitting on one of the branches.
Start a dialog with him using the interaction key “F” and listen to all the lines. The quest to find the receiver will then be successfully completed.
Conclusion
Now you can consider yourself an experienced player in Stalcraft because you have mastered one important mechanic that allows you to get a lot of valuable things outside of story quests. Along with this, you have received information on how to find the source of the quest for two factions with the exact location of the character through which the quest is completed.
