   Meanwhile, semi-same topic,   
   Near Sea-Tac Airport, possibly the City of Sea-Tac put   
   on a 4th of July celebration show near/by Angle Lake.   
   Over 50 drones were clobbered by some interference,   
   and made 'soft' landings into the Lake.   
      
   There, you have enough key words to look it up   
   further.   
      
   They recovered most from the bottom, but they   
   apparently will never fly again.   
   Each looked about 2' by 2'.   
      
   -------------------------------   
   Interesting. While working on the FAA radio modernization project in the   
   90's we encountered GPS dead zones before jammers became available, though   
   they wouldn't be difficult to make. I never heard what caused them,   
   presumably RF leakage through poor shielding on industrial or medical   
   equipment.  When GPS was lost the equipment defaulted to 'dead reckoning'   
   and diluted the accuracy of its reported position. The military can afford   
   inertial guidance backup.   
      
   Due to my background and amateur radio license I need to consider the   
   legality of what I search for, or discuss.
