If under the effect of the radar jammer, it is possible to distinguish between the 'false enemies' and the real enemies on your radar. It can be seen that dots on the radar generated by the jammer almost never stop moving, whereas real enemies tend to move more carefully and stop at points, the fake blips also seem to move faster and more "fluidly" than a normal person. An activated radar jammer can also be destroyed by [[weapons]] fire. | If under the effect of the radar jammer, it is possible to distinguish between the 'false enemies' and the real enemies on your radar.

This is not completely true, as instead of an instant effect upon those within range, the jammer creates "Ghosts" which fly around randomly, altering only the motion-trackers of those players within range. The effect moves with the jammer, as witnessed by the position of the red blips relative to the Jammer. This is most noticeable on either [[Valhalla]] or [[Narrows]], where by throwing the radar jammer into one of the [[Man Cannons]], the red blips appear to fly in the same direction it was launched. | ||
