GPS antenna mods make Starlink terminal immune to jammers

So &quot;immune to jammers&quot; seems to be hyperbole; perhaps &quot;more resistant to jammers&quot; wuld be a more accurate phrasing.

Does Starlink have a mode where you can manually tell it its lat&#x2F;long? For a semi-stationary receiver, surely that would be a better way to bootstrap a connection.

Question: How come aircraft can so easily get jammed then? They use GPS for precise positioning in flight, so I&#x27;m guessing they have the very best antennas...

Question: Would using GPS antenna that only points at the sky (vs more omni-directional ones that mobile devices must have to work in any position) would &quot;fix&quot; the jamming problem ?

Why does Starlink need to use GPS if it can use its own satellite constellation to make time of flight measurements?

Surely, a satellite in orbit could easily jam Starlink boxes on the ground.

&gt;&gt; IMMUNE TO JAMMERS<p>No. That is not a thing. At most, one can make equipment less susceptible to jamming. Jamming is not like hacking, it isn&#x27;t a matter of whether an attack works or does not. It cannot be fixed via a patch. Pump out enough energy close enough to the target and even a hyper-directional antenna can be jammed.<p>Have a look at military GPS jammers. They aren&#x27;t the little dongles that you can buy online and run off USB battery packs.
