http://www.cellantenna.com/CJAM/cjam_1000.htmI was looking at trying to buy one of these 6 months ago. You need to be a government agency really, but having one of these puppies an really cause some headaches for companies/facilities.
If I bought one I would drive around with it, just to piss of the morons with cellphones that cannot pay attention when they drive.

That's really cool. Especially how you can jam certain areas and not jam others. It always pissed me off how SR jammers are blind AOE communications bombs.

hah. you can build one of those with 20$ worth of parts from an electronics surplus store. (not radio shack, they're worthless)
it might not have the power/features, but it will get the job done.
what I'm doing now is working on a Wifi jammer.

if you get the schematics done let me know ... I will but a huge aerial so I can jam the phones/wifi on my block. I have 6 signals beaming into my house. Till I get my tinfoil siding I am just going to make their lives miserable.

If my knowledge of physics is correct, jamming the signal doesn't prevent it from entering your brain. Maybe the useful "manchurian" data is lost, but then you're just getting scrambled orders from your master.
Why not just piggyback on them instead?

it doesn't stop it from entering my brain, but it makes it completely unusable. which means after a month, people will have given up, and I can turn it off.

Why do you object to them having those signals? Does it interfere with anything?

Yes I object to having these signals pollute my household environment. I do not have wireless devices in my house. The research is still inconclusive, on whether so much bombardment is safe. I prefer to err on the side of caution. I also have young kids which it has been suggested are more vulnerable.

Get rid of low levels of potentially harmful EM wave pollution by using a vastly more powerful transmitter of your own. That's brilliant.

Have you read the MIJI rules? They're nothing of the kind, though the brute-force approach is of course available.

Ignoring the fact that the research is not inconclusive at all, merely incomplete, what you would be doing is making the problem worse. Your method is a guarantee that every device in the radius, including your jammer, will be operating at full power. At best, that means you've got one more device pumping EM radiation into you (and this one with a source far closer to you, unless you've got a plot of land away from your house), at worst you increase the total amount of EM activity.

I can see the logic.
A month of EM jamming might bring a few years of EM silence. I have a feeling the property law will quickly come into the modern age if more people do this. They can certainly show suffering damage by signals leaving your property. Your only counter will be to try to show that you suffered damage by their signals entering your property.

Or putting it up behind your drywall/interior which is easier.
up here? Sounds like you're a canuck possibly. If that's the case, just wait till we absorb your country. There's UCAS for a reason.

Actually do you even know what your laws are in regards to the transmissions?
As the others have said, you're really delusional to think that EM from cellphones are more harmful than the jammer running at full blast and you'll stop it by just shielding one side of your home? What about when you have to go out?
I guess you don't care about the people living near you, how thoughtful of ye. If you set it up, they might sue you for the health problems that you say is caused by the cell phones and are now causing it on them by deluging them with your jammer waves because you certainly believe there's health problems that stem from it. Depending on the range of the transmitter, if they are living nearby and are losing signals because of it, they may have a cause of action against you to stop using that jammer since your waves are intruding upon their space (depending on canadian property law and such).
Also you have to worry about the power cost, the monthly bill to have the jammer on all the time. Isn't it cheaper, one time cost to line the interior of your abode with tinfoil? Not the brick, but the interior which is much, much cheaper, unless you live in some sort of dwelling that has brick on the interior too.

well ... it would still be alot more expensive to strip all the drywall then put tin, then rehang and pain drywall.
I would not do a whole face of the house ... I would just put shielding on the side of the box at most it would take 1/2 a square meter.
As for the invasion, it is going to happen, and we are stockpiling. I am wondering how many attrocities the US can wrack up in the name of freedom. I can hear your president now, "Well they were a democratic country and an alliy, but I heard there was a terrorist with a weapon of mass destruction in there so, it justifies invading them"

Well 1, I would expect the rcmp woud intervene, but that would only happen if planes start experiencing problems, so I would need to shield the top as well. No one in the neighbourhood I live in would be able to figure it out. The power draw would not be too bad, it is not broadcasting in the megawatt range. I think you underestimate our laws. Remember file sharing is not still not illegal up here. Our RCC takes its time.

Nah, why bother invading. With the proximity to Canada and your unprotected borders we can have a strike team at your abode during the night, kick down your door, throw a flashbang to confuse you, shoot you with <lethal or nonlethal weaponry>. And then be back over the border in time for breakfast. If we chose to take ye, we'll just put ye up in a nice Carribean bungelow where our intelligence officers can work ye over...
See, no invasion needed.
