GPS jamming
GPS has become the navigation tool of choice...
The jamming of GPS is so trivial that any reasonably bright 14 year

Some older navcoms will jam the gps in the plane when tuned to certain
frequencies... A quick google search on the radio models and those
certain frequencies is enough information for one to build a wide area
gps jammer...
It used to be the gov't worried about a terrorist using the GPS to
guide a weapon to a precise point... Whereas, they should worry about
a terrorist blocking GPS over a wide area on a dark and stormy night,
with airliners unable to land, ships losing navigation near the coast,
etc...
