Is there any thing that blocks GPS like you can get a cell phone blocker (yes, I know it's not legal).

Subversion of the law to make it appear reasonable is wrong.  I understand the probable clause, plain sight, etc....  This intrusion to apply a device unknown to me, without my permission is wrong.  The fact that I've nothing to hide is immaterial.

I don't know how reasonable men can debate and misconstrue the document that allows them to debate, speek their minds freely and have the choice to formulate their own opinion and shout it to the world. 

I've been the victim of illegal search, thankfully aquited of all charges.  It SUCKS and sometimes the damage cannot be reversed.

Yea, but is getting a lot of gum mags thru the USPS considered probable cause to keep track of someone?  You can bet your friendly post "person" knows.

Mine is a pretty good guy who, if anything, reads them first.  ;D

That's the problem, we are not dealing with "reasonable men" but self righteous power hungry political elitist a$$holes.

Being out of the line of sight of the satellites, in a valley where Satellite TV is not available for example.

I believe that the vehicle I'm driving in to be private property even when it's conveying my fat ass to and from whereever I'm taking the aformentioned fat backside.  My personal effects are MY property and are covered under the 4th IMO.  My garbage that I've turned out into the street is considered "common garbage", thus the origination of the term and no longer my property.

My automobile is one of the effects that the 4th mentions, though at the time of ratification, that conveyance may have been a cart or buggy or any wagon considered such by the men that penned the ammendment.  The authorities have no right to touch it, period!

The Patriot Act was a hasty piece of paper written (long ago and waiting for the appropriate moment) under the duress willfulness of angry frightened (of us) men and should be ammended eradicated along with its authors and ultimate perpetrators..

Haz fixed the wrong part.

Why bother? If you find it, just place it under a delivery truck, say your friendly local USPS truck?

Or a cop car.... ;D Seriously if its pasive (just reciving) as this one seemed to be, I doubt you could find it even if you were paranoid to buy a bug detector and sweep every day. Although, a gps unit has to have a clear sight line to sats. You couldn't put in a wheel well without an aerial, TWyacht would be our go to guy, but I used to have trouble with mine when I was in grown over hung mangrove creeks.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

I understand the sentiments conveyed here, but what is the difference between not noticing being followed and a GPS transmitter than (and here's a shocker) a lazy police force? 
The person who has nothing for which his is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
