Hi

Having spent a lot of my life designing GPSDO’s it’s a “that depends” sort of 
thing. 
For a simple noise jammer, yes, they pretty much all will go into holdover. 
When the
jammer goes away, they come out of holdover. There are a few older units that 
may not
do quite as well with various sorts of broadband jamming.  With a spoofing 
jammer that is flying
around overhead and simulating an entire constellation … you could see any of 
them do odd 
things. An airborne jammer flying over this or that city likely gets you into a 
“act of war” sort of issue. 
It’s something you build if you are a nation state. 

The performance with noise jammers is not a guess. It’s based on field 
experience and
all those never ending meetings I keep referring to …..
