The cool thing about a jammer, is that it has to emit something. A
single source for wide-area jamming is fairly easy to detect. There's
a company just north of here in Boston (Mayflower, used to be in
Billerica, moved down the road to Burlington) that's got a design with
phased arrays of antennae that are used to DF on the source, quite
effectively.

Happy mitigating

I used to live in Billerica some 30 years ago. Bet it has changed. I am
now down in north Texas.
