How to Obtain Signal Redirector in Atomfall

In the post-apocalyptic world of *Atomfall*, certain items can significantly enhance your survival and exploration efforts. One such crucial item is the Signal Redirector, which is notoriously difficult to acquire. If you're struggling to locate it, this guide will walk you through the process of obtaining the Signal Redirector.

Where to Find Signal Redirector in Atomfall

The Signal Redirector isn't something you'll stumble upon in a typical trader's inventory or on a random corpse, unlike the Metal Detector. This special tool is hidden in a unique location linked to one of the game's key characters, Dr. Diane Garrow, a former B.A.R.D scientist. To get your hands on it, you must first obtain a lead from Wyndham Village about her whereabouts and then embark on a rescue mission.

Dr. Garrow is imprisoned deep within the Protocol prison camp in Skethermoor, a location teeming with hostile Protocol soldiers. To ease your infiltration, it's wise to connect with Captain Grant Sims in Wyndham Village beforehand. By assisting him with tasks like retrieving stolen items, you can gain temporary favor with Protocol, making your journey slightly less perilous.

When you're ready, head to the Protocol prison camp situated on the southern edge of Skethermoor. The entrance to the underground prison is at the end of the southernmost road, marked by a large green door.

Navigating the prison is a multi-level challenge, where you must evade or confront guards and robots. Remember, B.A.R.D robots can be disabled to obtain **Atomic Batteries**, essential for The Interchange. Proceed to the bottom level, past the dig site, where Dr. Garrow is confined in a standalone cell in the main room. To free her, you'll need to retrieve the Signal Redirector from the nearby Storage room, where it sits on a shelf. Securing the device also earns you the **‘Reverse the Polarity’ trophy/achievement**.

How to Use Signal Redirector in Atomfall

The Signal Redirector, crafted by Dr. Garrow, serves as a hacking tool that reroutes power within yellow junction boxes to different sources. This capability is invaluable for disabling security systems and unlocking storage rooms.

Similar to the Metal Detector, the Signal Redirector will alert you with an icon at the bottom of your screen when a hackable junction box is nearby. Follow the device's needle to locate the box, which will be highlighted when you're close enough. Use the 'Hack' button to reroute the power, and if necessary, you can reverse the process by hacking the junction box again.

Utilizing the Signal Redirector will aid in freeing Dr. Garrow and advancing her storyline, should you choose to help her escape.
