The bar magnet would not work .The devices work by using the energy from the transmitter to power them & send back a transponder signal with a digital bit code. To disrupt or destroy the device would need an rf signal not a stationary field from a bar magnet.A very powerful pulsed signal preferably on
the same frequency or narrow spectrum of frequencies used by the device targeted ,directed at the device at close range would cause the unit to internally short circuit the same way as an EMP from a nuclear explosion does. a microwave oven would be perfect 2-10 secs would be more than enough.
building such a unit would be easy using parts from a local radio components or mail order store
once the specification of the devices were know this information would be readily available from
suppliers of devices for purposes of standardisation throughout the industry the same way as radar
traps & detectors for them. If some were built on different frequencies to defeat "jammers/destroyers"
all somebody would have to do is use a frequency meter in the area they were used to find out what it was. now you know this information you are going to have to kill yourselves as it would be difficult for
me to do it over the web! (grin)
