Orange thinks it may be a fault with the handset . ( Nokia N96)

That sounds familiar to me, i had the exact same problem. If that’s the case, i hope they dont take over a week, and 2 new handsets, to send you a working one like they did with me :imp:

GCHQ routinely monitor mobile phone traffic and computers pick out key words relevant to the road transport industry (it has hundred’s of key words). So if you mentioned anything to do with trucking no matter how trivail GCHQ computers will have flagged it up, tracked you and sent cops out to check your on hands free :exclamation: But do note they do sometimes use ‘plain wrapers’ or sometimes they contact the “wardens of the motorways” who sit in their blacked out range rovers on motorway bridges and they look out for you and check you using your phone legally :open_mouth: :wink: :laughing: .

As other have said, more than likely a phone fault and was pure fluke that the cops were driving by as you lost your signal.

Hypothetically speaking if the cops did have a mobile jamming device in the car :open_mouth: :confused: your signal would have returned once you had lost sight of them. Although saying that some jamming devices are capable of knocking out/disabling telecommunications within a 5 mile radius of the source :open_mouth: :open_mouth: .

These devices are illegal to operate but legal to own, just like police scanners where its legal to listen in but illegal to act on the information :blush: :blush: :grimacing: :grimacing: .

Far as I am aware the police are not allowed to use these wily nilly although I may be wrong :question: :confused: :confused: . But in situations e.g. a terrorist attack they do have the power to commandeer entire mobile phone networks solely for emergency services use.

In relation to the other 2 post about knocking out tracking devices and “parking eyes” a mobile jamming device would not be suitable as they both operate on different radio frequencies out of the spectrum of telecommunication jamming devices so a separate device relevant to that spectrum would be needed. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

do you know peccy… either you have some top of the range information or you have been watching to many episodes of 24. :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth:

A word of warning though if you have a tracker in your vehicle this will block your boss from collecting the info from it while it is on :wink:.

So why did I hear the message I heard when we were disconnected. His phone is working fine, and was after it happened. The not working bit was a wind up. :imp: :smiling_imp: :imp: :smiling_imp:

Generally speaking wireless camera’s (or ‘parking eyes’) work around the 900MHz, 1200MHz(1.2G) and 2400MHz(2.4) ranges, mobile phones operate from around 872mhz to 960mhz, and GPS is usually within the range of 1450~1600MHz. The frequency is pretty much irrelevant since the frequency of almost any wireless device can be ascertained using a hand held scanner, once this is known the construction of a jamming device is pretty straightforward. Anyone could do it with a bit of freely available knowledge on the net. Costs less than a fiver (so I’ve heard :wink: ) but of course I wouldn’t recommend anyone doing such a thing, I’ve had reports of a 30 metre range knocking out all phones including 3G. Wifi is just as simple to knock out (why would you want to?) and wireless cameras much the same. Remember, as has been said, it’s perfectly legal to own any of this stuff provided you dont use it :confused:
