Anyone measured power output of their bubble?

The operation of transmitters designed to jam or block wireless communications is a violation of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act"). See 47 U.S.C. Sections 301, 302a, 333. The Act prohibits any person from willfully or maliciously interfering with the radio communications of any station licensed or authorized under the Act or operated by the U.S. government. 47 U.S.C. Section 333. The manufacture, importation, sale or offer for sale, including advertising, of devices designed to block or jam wireless transmissions is prohibited. 47 U.S.C. Section 302a(b). Parties in violation of these provisions may be subject to the penalties set out in 47 U.S.C. Sections 501-510. Fines for a first offense can range as high as $11,000 for each violation or imprisonment for up to one year, and the device used may also be seized and forfeited to the U.S. government.

IMHO, yes. If you successfully 'jam' the tower downlink the phone will eventually goto "No Service" mode. However, this method requires more power. (you have to override the signal of the tower)

Lets not forget the effectiveness of a good antenna! The right antenna can effectively boost the ERP by several db. :lol:

True. But my antenna is only 12" and has a 6db gain. Looks like any other mobile cell antenna. 8)

Probably a 1/2 wave antenna with unity gain. BUT, with 80W or drive you don't really need any antenna gain :!: :shock:
