That gizmo only works on stuff that's within 32 yards of you. Not powerful enough. :(

Oooh. I like that signal jammer. Does it work on cell phones, especially those being used by people driving? Or obnoxious people in the restaurant? Good up to 90 feet, I may keep it on all the time if I could get my hands on one.

I understand they work very well. Signal jammers are illegal in the US per FCC:

Only time I've ever played music aloud on a trail was yesterday... but it was 3am, I was the only one on the trail, and it was mostly to calm my nerves :P

I don't care if they are illegal, I still want a jammer. It's only illegal if you get caught...and who's going to report me? I'm jamming their signal right? :) (input evil laugh)

This jammer is the best invention since the cell phone it is designed to jam. If people have the right to talk, I have the right to silence them. (more evil laughing)

Just give me my jammer and no one gets hurt.

I would almost think the person citing you for the violation would actually be on your side in spirit as long as you weren't interfering with something important to them.... ;)

Question: Would this speaker backpack be loud enough to scare off a grizzly bear?
