Relative to the last notice, a CW jammer would be at a single frequency, so it seems odd they specify a band. Perhaps a CW anywhere in that band.

I talked to the USAF about their jamming, and they use white noise over the band. A certain COTS Marconi (IIRC) signal generator produces the band limited noise and puts it on the carrier.

and 1400-1630 GMT.
Location of jammers: Sea based omni-directional jammer onboard a vessel 
sailing within the Experimental Buoys area, as charted, but no further North 
than 51°55’N in the area bound by following boundary positions (WGS84):
*         51.916667°N 1.453745°E  (51° 55.0’N  1°27.2’E)
*         51.883980°N 1.445504°E  (51° 53.0’N  1°26.7’E)
