Yes, I have seen a fault with a GPS antenna cause a GPS receiver to re-radiate knocking out all GPS's within a mile radius. We couldn't believe either that the receiver could cause this, so it took us ages to find the fault.

Just come back from the Caspian, 200nm north of Terhan, 500 from Baghdad and GPS was working fine there.

Cheers
