For a GPS jammer to be legal it would have to operate under the FCC rules for radio transmitters. Even if these jammers are Part 15 devices(less than 100mw) I doubt transmitting on GPS frequencies is legal.

Not only is it illegal, it is a Federal offense, I imagine. Never eff with the Feds unless you enjoy living at their expense in a nice clean cell.
