There’s “I don’t recommend” for roundabout suggestions to not be captured, then there’s “this will probably get you black bagged.”
Yeah, I realized the more I say I’m serious the more sarcastic it seems.
All good, it’s easy to mistake those tones in text. Happens to all of us, mistake was entirely mine.
Yeah figure there’s jammers but I wonder if they are throwaways? I’m thinking like maybe something the size of a spiral bound notebook with a small PCB at one end and an antenna running up the side or snaked along the surface of the page. Something easily carried in a bookbag, maybe even looks like a notebook at first glance. Or maybe they’re even smaller, like a coin, that can be thrown into the gutter.
Just saying it might make a good plot point for a book or movie to have a resistance group quietly bring in a few thousand of such devices and distribute them for random dispersion.
Antenna size is a big issue at these frequencies. I don’t think you can just use a tiny microstrip like with wifi. You probably need several watts of transmit power at least, which means you’re drawing even more than that from the battery and all your amplifies and stuff need to be able to dissipate heat properly.
Notebook-sized sounds plausible but coin-sized doesn’t.
For sure coin size doesn’t sound reasonable unless there was maybe some kind of wire loop antenna to unspool, and even then maybe the power draw is indeed too high to run off a watch battery.
I’m just thinking back to my Baofeng radio being not particularly large and the antenna pretty short. So maybe notebook size would be viable.
It’s proabaly under a load to make it electrically longer. Which makes it noisier, but if you don’t care about noise for some reason…

If it’s in a building or on a rooftop the noise is only a problem if you stick around
Ikatono, your link doesn’t work.

They’ve reached the point where they’re throwing little scraps out to get us to stop barking. This isn’t real change. We need to keep marching.

That’s right. A few licks can’t fill a starving belly. Don’t stop until we gorge on the full 12 course meal.

Noisier as in worse quality signal, not audible noise.
Can anyone confirm? That’s too fucking cartoony to be believable.
Especially since the FBI found no links between Antifa and the violence on Sunday.
The tunnels refer to Wile E. Coyote vs. Roadrunner cartoons, definitely not actually happening.
I figure it was referencing those cartoons but I wasn’t sure if it was satire or some enterprising young art students trying to stick it to the man.
I’ve had one in hand(Not mine, belonged to a admittedly kinda paranoid mate) that was roughly the size of a pack of cigarettes, and blocked ALL phones and GPS for about 150-200m radius with the crappy 3-inch antenna. If you put something bigger on, you could get better range pretty trivially, a coil antenna the length of a notebook wire, you could get a decent radius. As Neito said, they overdrive the shit out of the antennas, because not just that the electrical noise isn’t a worry, it’s literally the point.
Cops are starting to crack.
Now is the time to steel our resolve and keep it up!

Almost forgot about the guy who tried loosing arrows at protesters. Turns out he had priors and couldn’t buy firearms.

Apparently, Habeas Corpus is suspended, on top of everything else.
