When the Soviets were running OTHR in the amateur bands, (which used the HF echo to "see" targets) I used QSK CW dits to synchronize with their OTHR pulse timing and jam their "B" scopes. As a former Radar Electronics Counter-Measures and Electronics Counter-Counter-Measures operator, I knew it was simply a matter of transmitting a signal of about the same frequency, duration, and slightly stronger than their "return" to confuse their operators.

I guess we should all be thankful that they didn't confuse your Omni D for a swarm of U.S. ICBMs coming over the horizon... ;-)
