In the world of amateur radio, we see things like this pop up from time to time. It is interesting, given the severity of the problem, that is took 2 years (or at least 1 year) before they were able to identify the perp (or was it sheer dumb luck and he was pulled over for a different reason).
In general, it is a very bad idea to mess with the airspace controlled by either the FCC or the military. Bet you all knew that.
