      Think of a signal jammer as something blasting static. You’re only hope of getting around that is playing something even louder. Russian jammers are effective because they don’t care about leaving channels open for communication and civil comms. They just blast farts on every frequency.

      What works in one dimensional ear canal doesn’t work in three dimensional open space.

      While we have noise cancelling headphones, have you ever heard of noise cancelling speakers?

        Actually my father in-law used to design loudspeaker systems that canceled certain frequencies put out by power plants at different heights along exhaust stacks

        I assume the trick is knowing or calculating how far you are from the source your timing to block, and having speakers that are broadcasting away from the source.
