No?
Maybe that guy sitting on the other side of the restaurant is jamming your call. Cell phone jammers, which scramble the signal of any incoming or outgoing cell phone call within a certain range, are illegal in the U.S. But that does not stop dozens of online catalogs from selling them to American buyers. Although available for years, cell phone jammers are rare. You probably have never had your phone jammed. The reason is that, historically, jammers have been expensive, large and generally conspicuous looking. Suddenly, all that has changed. An online catalog called Brando, which specializes in all manner of USB gadgets and random peripheral devices, is now selling a very small and very inexpensive jammer. The jammer is actually smaller than a cell phone, costs only $166 and shuts down GSM 850-, 900-, 1,800- and 1,900-MHz cell phone calls within a 30-foot radius. The jammer holds a rechargeable lithium ion battery and comes with a charger. The Palm Phone Jammer is the first cell phone jammer that I am aware of that is priced, sized and created like a mass-market consumer electronics device. Features: Portable Palm Phone Jammer Blocking distance: 5 - 10 meters Blocking frequency: GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz Size: 6 x 6.8 x 2 cm Weight: 70 g
