I can think of two ways to do this.

One is to build some sort of frequency hopping jammer. How you would make a freq hopper sound decent I don't know, but it would cut down on the amount of power you'd have to transmit to take out all the stations in an area.

The other would be to transmit on all stations simultaneously...which would require a generator that weighs 150,000 pounds to power it. (Caterpillar makes them and they are fucking huge.)
