Only if you are willing to forego the phone as well, in which case, just remove the battery pack :-)
I am assuming here that the phone has a dual receiver, one of the GPS signal and one of the cellular service itself. As both operate on different frequencies, it should be possible to jam one while keep the other's service intact.
Ahhh... My bad: I had not considered my audience when I replied :-) Yes, I suppose that the more technical amongst us could selctively jam only the one signal, however, cellular phones are mighty low power devices, and I would not hazard a guess as to whether it would be possible not to overpower the wanted signals on something like this. Even if this is doable, it is out of reach of Jane Citizen. -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org "...justice is a duty towards those whom you love and those whom you do not.
