Overview
This bill makes it a crime in New Jersey to use devices known as "signal jammers." These devices interfere with radio communications, including cell phone signals, Wi-Fi, and GPS, potentially disrupting emergency services and other vital communications. The bill expands existing state law to specifically prohibit the use of certain scanning receivers that can interfere with cellular transmissions. It aligns with existing federal regulations on signal jammers.
