About This Lesson
We probably shouldn’t be telling you this, but here’s the quick and dirty on how to jam radio signals. Every broadcast has a characteristic frequency that’s based on how many million times per second a sound wave oscillates. So when you tune your radio to your public radio station, you’re actually setting your radio so that it picks up the signal at the designated frequency. So to jam a radio broadcast, all you need to do is radiate a signal at the same frequency as the broadcast you’re trying to jam.
