Not how 802.11 works. Put up another transmitter on a different SSID
and it raises the noise floor for everybody. It doesn't render the
frequency useless.

Remember, we got 2.4ghz in the first place because the huge signal
interference from microwave ovens and -rain- had already rendered it
useless. Until spread spectrum came along.
