It really doesn't take much!
One of my favorite GPS jamming incidents of public record is the one at

Bringing this back on the topic of time :) The Fall 2007 issue of the
magazine "Inside GNSS" has an interesting article "Fuzzy Time -
GPS-Based Synchronizers in the Presence of Interference" For a CW
signal, a GPS timing receiver's performance begins to degrade when the
interfering signal is at a level of -87 dBm. With an FM interference
source, it starts to degrade at -106 dBm. Well worth the read if you
can find this magazine.
