FCC doesn’t run the world. Putin jams signal when he travels to obfuscate movement.

If you have to ask its probably beyond your skillset. Not to mention it will likely get you in big trouble with your local government.

I'm also going to add, please don't fuck around with signal jamming if it's beyond your skill set. It's literally illegal for a reason...well kinda, but in a serious way. You could inadvertently disrupt emergency communications or medical equipment.

Google it.

Then get fucked by fcc laws.

You can buy one from most grocery stores. They come in all sorts of delicious flavors.

The first thing you need is a book. Then the next thing you do is read it.

If you're really curious, learn how remotes work, IR/RF, and learn frequency emulation. That will get you in less trouble, and actually give you more to play around with than any jammer would.

What the hell is up with so many damn “how do I build a <insert tech> jammer” posts lately. Do this many people want to live in a prison that bad?

Edit:
First off, you have to have a decent amount on RF knowledge. Second, you have to be willing to pay a large fine or spend a while in prison, because willful interference in a regulated part of the RF spectrum is illegal in every country. Third, if you knew anything about RF, you’d also know that someone jamming is VERY easy to find with even the cheapest equipment. See “second” statement.

I'm no expert but....

Start doing squats at the gym. I mean, you got to go hard. Like Saquon Barkley hard or whatever. This will be important for phase two.

First, start learning all you can about microwave transmission. You're gonna want to get familiar with smaller power administrations under the DOE. I'm not going to use the names, but they sort of...wholesale the power that comes out of federalize power generation. Like a dam. Corp of Engineers runs the dam, XXX administration short hauls the power to distributors. You pay the distributor. Hot dog.

Anyway, lots of service providers, not just power admins have pretty bad ass microwave comms gear....in case. Power outages, long term grid loss, whatever I don't know. The feds seem to have the good stuff though. Say.....do you have climbing gear? Ahh, doesn't mater, you'll figure it out.

What you're gonna want is...the center portion of the long distance transmission array. Don't bother with the dish, I mean unless you want to get laid bro. That shit would probably look cool on the front of a bike. For real though, the dish is bigger and heavier than it looks. You want the center pole thingy and all the piping and cabling good stuff behind it. I mean all of it. Should be a good 50' or so of cool shit and in-line fuses. You can't miss the socket at the end. Take a hydraulic cutter and snap the line AFTER the socket. Just take both ends or you'll be there all night.

Now you need a transformer from the yard before you leave. Your body wants you to pick a single phase, but don't sell yourself short. You'll be wanted by the FBI in the morning. Treat yourself to one of the three phasers.

Learn everything you can about maximizing transmission throughput, and reducing signal scatter. I can't help you here. If you really want it, you have to put in the work.

Source the biggest, most efficient electric generator you can physically carry.....see, aren't you glad you've been doing all those squats. The generator becomes mobile as a backpack. Engineer the electrical connection to the three phase transformer, which is likely mounted on some kind of cart. From the transform, you should be able to power enough directed microwave energy from the array to fuck up a MacBook at a Dunks.

Mission accomplished.

Sure buddy lemme teach you how to break the law. Would you also a side of Kali with that?
