Man Faces Fine for Disrupting Airport Satellite
NEWARK,
N.J. August 9, 2013 (AP) - A New Jersey man faces tens of thousands of dollars
in fines after regulators say he interfered with a satellite system at one of
the nation's busiest airports while masking his whereabouts from his
employer.
The
Federal Communications Commission says Gary Bojczak admitted he installed a
jamming device in his company-owned pickup to thwart his employer's
GPS.
The
FCC says the jamming device interfered with a satellite system that enhanced
navigation signals that used GPS data to aid aircraft approaching, departing and
on the ground at Newark Liberty International Airport.
Officials
say Bojczak surrendered the jamming device after his vehicle was stopped at the
airport in 2012.
His
faces nearly $32,000 in fines after the FCC found he unlawfully operated an
illegal GPS jammer and interfered with authorized communications.
