Hint: the G in GPS stands for Global. It's like taxes: everywhere. Casady Just about ANY Military Nuclear Site in the USA. Most of the FEMA Bunkers. Most of the SAC Bases have that capability, but only test it unless at DefCon 2 or higher. White House & Capitol Building, depending on the immediate Threat Level. Places like that here in this country. Overseas, Many of the National Parliament buildings, and Presidential Palaces, and major Military installations, and places like that. Global means Global Coverage from the Sky, not global coverage on the Ground when local Jammers are active. This isn't Rocket Science, and many Militaries around the world can, and do Jam the Civilian Datastreams, within their boarders. The P-Code & Military Datastreams, are a lot more resistant to such Jamming. -- Bruce in alaska add path after fast to reply |
