Re: How is this different than regular cell phone jamming? said by moonpuppy:And how many people still use CB? Just about every emergency response service (police, firefighters and ambulances) still does rely on CB for dispatching and reporting. I doubt governments will ditch spectrum reserved for emergency services any time soon. |

kudos:1 | CB is a particular public radio band... public safety doesn't use it. They monitor it in some localities for emergencies but they don't use it for communications. You are thinking simply of 2-way radios. |

Not even close. As explained, CB is a public use band.
And ask NYPD and NYFD how their systems worked on 9/11 when they lost the WTC complex. Most of their fancy digital communications were rendered useless in a matter of a couple of hours. |
