A high power RF emitter wold do the job. However, if you do it successfully, a lot of people will get real upset about not being able to use the GSM networks, they complain and the local radio licensing authority will be out to investigate. Then, you are in huge trouble. Probably not wise to do it. Alternatively, if it is to prevent GSM devices being used inside a building, a Farady cage might work. It is made of metal sheets that enclose a room or building, all connected to each other and all connected to ground. Effective, but expensive and it cuts out all other RF signals as well. == For "local" control of the airwaves, a low power transmitter can be used as a "jammer" on these frequencies. That will allow z"quiet" in areas that one wishes to control things. A movie theater, perhaps. But any attempt to "push the envelope" will be met with Federal force. Check around before running loose on this. The FCC controls the airwaves, and they aren't very patient with the patent infringement of the rights of mobile communicators to use those airwaves. And they have a little van with a couple of geeks in it to track you down. They're well equiped and good at it. Trying to seal a building against electronic communication is difficult and expensive, particularly if you have "variable" openings in it where people and/or vehicles are coming and going.

What is a preloaded GPS?

ANSWER: "Preloaded GPS" often refers to the memory of a GPS device (either built in flash memory or a removable memory card) having maps for a given country or region. For example a North American preloaded GPS device likely has maps for Canada, USA and Mexico. It is up to the company creating the GPS device ultimately, and do a bit of research for a GPS device's choice of maps before deciding on a unit. A GPS web forum or the manufacturer's website would be excellent resources to help ensure you get what you are looking for out of your GPS purchase.
