Source

• Can be purchased from the Scrap Dealer aboard the Space Station.
• Can be received as a reward from Nexus missions.
• Iteration Helios offers a free receiver each week,
  • Travellers must complete a derelict freighter mission before Helios will start offering a free receiver.

Additional information

• After activation, you need to travel via pulse drive in any direction to detect a derelict freighter.
• If standard exosuit inventory is full and more than one receiver is owned, activation will fail as "Receiver Temporarily Jammed"; one slot must be clear for a receiver to convert to the "active" form.
• If the receiver is placed in the Personal Refiner, it will not be consumed upon opening the airlock and will become inactive upon completion of the derelict.
