Open Signal Can Track Signal Jammers on Election Day

May 2, 2013

There has been too much hype on the 2013 Senatorial Election in the Philippines. This will be the second time we will be having a fully-automated election. However, there were worries about the so-called, "Signal Jammers" which can disrupt the sending of results from the PCOS machines.

Open Signal is an android app that is used like a compass which points you to the strongest signal in the vicinity. If your phone has this app installed, you can scan your area for the highest area of wireless transmission, probably the "Signal Jammer."
