Besides, who would?

The former Spetsnaz sniper is not a communications or electronics specialist. In any case, he will enough claims on his time.

The OpFor leader is a business executive with a shady past. He has actually had people use various such devices on his behalf, but would have no idea how to do it himself. Nor should he, as he is effectively an officer and has better things to do than technical tasks.

There are two men who are former soldiers, former military contractors and current security contractors, as well as both having Private Investigator licenses. Theoretically, they might know how to make a jammer, but only at default from competent, but not exceptional, Electronics Operation (Communication) or their expert Electronics Operation (Security) or (Surveillance).

Neither of them is a tech geek, they use electronics, they don't design or make them. At home, in Dallas, they work with people who put up security systems for a living, as well as a computer security consultant. But those co-workers are not criminals, are not there and do not, in fact, know what their fellow security contractors are doing.

The dozen sicarios range from gang members who happen to have a gift for violence to former cops or infanfrymen from Bolivia or Peru. Maybe three of them have been security for a PMC. None of them are educated or have much in the way of valuable skills aside from being urban guerillas.
