When the president was in NYC there were "beeping" or jammers on to ensure you hear absolutley nothing even if you crack the encryption.....So good luck!
I agree with Dave. Please clarify. If I understood correctly, you say that there was beeping or jamming to ensure their transmissions were not heard right? So if they jam a certain frequency or set of frequencies, would they not be hindering their own transmissions?When the president was in NYC there were "beeping" or jammers on to ensure you hear absolutley nothing even if you crack the encryption.....So good luck!

Terrorists have been known to use everything from radio controlled toy cars to cell phones to detonate IED's. Hard lessons learned in the ongoing war on terror, deploy wide-band jammers in the Prsidental convoy.
That's the ROADRUNNER communications vehicle. And yes, the have HF on board.
They often don't deploy the HF antenna, but lately I have seen it out more often in motorcades.

Doesn't look like the back end of a Rodrunner to me (I've been inside one) and the antenna on the bumper appears to be a COMROD 30-88MHz end fed or similar model. The USMC helicopter will have a SINCGARS compatible 30-88MHz radio among other things and I suspect the vehicle with bumper mounted antenna can communicate with the helicopter and may be staffed by military personnel and not Fed employees.
I've also got a couple of antennas from late model IED jammers and they cover most "popular" frequencies.

Here in Ontario, when the G20 happened, when there was a presential motorcade going through an area, cellphones stopped working in a certain area around the motorcade. This was announced in local media well before the arrival of the POTUS. It wouldn't surprise me if they just had a blanket wide-frequency ****-blaster to kill everything in the area.
It's the rear-end of a Ford Explorer so doubtful it's WHCA.
