Mobile Phone Signal Jammer

"Best Auction Site! !"

** Yes - they are declared prohibited devices.

See also:

Up to 2 years jail or $165,000 fine for supplying or operating one.

** Quote from the Radiocommunications Act, 1992 :

"supply" includes supply (including re-supply) by way of sale, exchange, lease, hire or hire-purchase.

** Wanker.

Yes, and so much so that even the government is powerless to use them to block illicit mobile phone use in prisons among inmates.

Actually you might experience a visit to prison if you try importing them. Since it isnt a "real" crime like murder, assault etc, the penalty wouldnt be a small one either.

And then there are others who can simply ignore the legislation and get away with it. I wonder what would happen if someone could not make an emergency call during this time?

"Mobile phone calls in Sydney's CBD will be blocked by a sophisticated counter-terrorism measure to prevent bomb attacks during US President George Bush's September APEC visit.

The President's motorcade will be shadowed by a helicopter equipped with signal-jamming equipment, newspapers report today."

"swanny the stinking LIAR "

** There are is no such persons - you stinking LIAR.

** " swanny " the * LIAR * deliberately omitted the rest of the story:

" Terrorists have used mobile phones to detonate remote-controlled bombs in Iraq and in the second Bali bomb attacks. It is expected mobile phone calls will drop out in an area THE SIZE OF A FOOTBALL FIELD as the helicopter passes overhead.

The technology was first used by the US President when Mr Bush attended the APEC summit in Pusan, South Korea, in 2005. "

I guess then, all the terrorists (if any) have to do is make a bomb that detonates a certain time AFTER the tower signal is lost ;), or when jamming is detected (if thats possible)

Or simply use a different trigger now that it's been widely publicised a mobile phone won't work. Are they just going to block mobile phones, or will it be a wideband blackout affecting a lot of other stuff too I wonder?

A blackout "the size of a football field" is a pretty narrow area when the chopper has to fly at a decent height to avoid all the high-rise buildings. I suspect it will be a somewhat larger area than a football field for a lot of the time.

Why don't they just mount the transmitter on Dubya's car, he can wear a tin foil hat to protect himself. Couldn't look any more stupid than he already does :->

Dave.

100% agree with all the above. :)

I just finished reading "Stupid White Men", almost pissed myself laughing! Can't wait to start reading "Dude, where's my country?"

Almost choked on my dinner the other night too when Dubya came #1 in the 20-to-1 shows list of losers and morons (or whatever it was). Well deserved.

Dave.

yeah, or use a wired telephone...

Bye. Jasen

I guess the terrorists will just have to rustle up a bomb with a lethal blast radius greater than a football field.

Given the multitude of frequencies that could be used to trigger something like that, I'm guessing it'll wipe out just about everything.

Sydey residents should be grateful for just having to bear the chopper - when he came to Canberra last time for his last pointless visit - as "reward" for "Man of Steel" John's support of the decisive victory that is Iraq, they had F/A18's criss-crossing the city all night. God knows what they were actually meant to do if anything happened...

Then again, I don't quite see why any terrorist would want to blow him up - he's done more for furthering their cause and growth than they ever could have achieved without his assistance.

Yes, he should have said those who can simply change the law to suit themselves, whenever they feel like it. ie. politicians.

MrT.

Well he may be a moron, but he is no loser. That would be the US people smart enough not to vote for him unfortunately.

MrT.

A suitable tone encoded signal over anyone of millions of channels from availible easy to buy radios .

Sad but true. I would be embarrassed to call myself an American.

Although we aren't too far behind with little Johnny.

Dave.

George W Bush!!

It still doesnt alter the fact that jammers are illegal in this country. I dont recall hearing of the same courtesy being given to John Howard when he was in the US. John Howard has repeadly stated that when Aussies break a law in another country, they should face that other countries penalties, therefore, I expect him to penalise Bush under our laws.

"Mr.Turd Brain "

** Wrong - as usual.

The original topic was *supplying* jamming equipment to anyone who wants one - for profit.

....... Phil

"Two Bob = Half Wit "

** Has no connection ** WHATEVER ** with the OP's f****it idea of supplying jammers to the public for profit.

YOU are an ASS 2- bob.

Fuck off.

....... Phil

Yes, your grammar sure is!

MrT.

So, you are now telling us that it's OK to supply jammers if he doesnt make a profit!

I am not a donkey, but YOU are an arse!
