Great FAQ at the end of the article. "Is it possible to hack the microwave signal? I am doubtful." I am not so doubtful on this one...

Signal/noise issues would favor a low power omnidirectional emitter placed near a receiving dish, roughly in the known signal path. It could overwhelm the real signal by favorable inverse square intensity. Put the emitter on a drone.
