Secret Service Jams Television Station

With the Vice President in town, security has to be high to protect the Vice President and the crowd in attendance. The Secret Service jams all cell signals, including our Live Feed of the Parade, and it also affected some of our camera and audio feeds.

Hint: it’s the SUV with all the antennas on top causing your feedback.

Not only that all that RF can actually fry someone being exposed like that in the open really nasty part on their behalf it’s worse than being in front of a cell phone tower up close all that RF radiation

the suv with the antennas is whats jamming the signal. its called the roadrunner and is used to prevent remotely activated explosives

[@mkbm3122]

Roadrunner is a Communications vehicle not the jammer

i really wonder how the secret service keeps the president safe in these situations. Anyone can be crazy and have a gun in the crowd. Do they check every single person there?

What do you think about what just happened a week ago?

[@kishascape]

They don’t jam cells
