I guess I missed the beginning of the thread. Are we talking about
jamming McDonald's radio system? If so, that's a single channel
system, not CDMA. (I believe McDonald's is licensed for high band -
150-170 MHz.)
Or are we talking about jamming cell phones in McDonald's restaurants,
which is highly illegal, even if done by McDonald's.

And with the same spread.

I think it was something along the lines of T-Mobile merging with Mc
Donald's and then putting a cell tower in every McDonalds, and then someone
mentioned that CDMA was a military development and resists jamming. ahhh,
isn't it amazing how conversations wonder?

Re: Deutsche Telekom and T-Mobile
The spread is not particularly difficult - after all, your cell phone
can do it.

Not quite. The cell phone isn't transmitting on all frequencies in the
channel simultaneously, but a jammer would have to. Otherwise it'd just
look like a particularly rude cell phone.

Does that mean that if you re-up with T-McDonald you can get a free
Big Mac with fries?

And how they wander, too. :-)

At one time, they used the same frequency (49.x) as GE Voice One and some
Maxon wireless headsets.

Yes. Someone suggested (probably facetiously) that ATTWS was merging with
McD's. I said that would be a good way to expand their network: put a cell
in every McD's, or as an alternative, CDMA jammers.

Difficult to jam CDMA running on the same channels as TDMA, though.
It would take jammers tailored to individual locations.
