Line 192:

* You will want to carry one or two spares of each kind of jammer in your hold for quick refits if your fleet gets intelligence about the enemy's ships. But also consider the cost of the modules and the possibility you may not have time to change them while out with a fleet.

* Consider the overall price of your ship when choosing module quality. Spending 10m on jammers for your 4m Blackbird isn't very cost effective. However, fitting 10m of jammers on a 60m Scorpion is much more sensible. Conversely, refusing to spend an extra 100k to make your 4m blackbird better is equally unwise.

* Meta 4 Signal Distortion Amplifiers have identical performance to Tech 2 but are cheaper and are very cost effective.

* Meta 4 Signal Distortion Amplifiers have identical performance to Tech 2 but are cheaper and are very cost effective. This could change so always be sure to double check the item info as well as with a fitting tool.

* Meta version racial jammers used to have similar strength levels to Tech 2 but now that has been re-balanced as of 4/13/2016. There is a notable benefit to using Tech 2 if your fitting skills permit but take into account the added cost. You may want to stick with the best fitting meta modules with a Griffin for example.

* Particle Dispersion Projector and Ionic Field Projector rigs are cheap and very cost effective. Particle Dispersion Augmenter rigs are considerably more expensive but do benefit the jam strength.
