Why would jamming signals be needed - could the moves not just be transmitted a move behind?
We might find out soon how it was done, if he was cheating I’d expect him to own up sooner or later - how could he function as a chess person, he couldn’t even go over the games afterwards, as dropping pawns and pieces everywhere would give the show away. Maybe he just wants a quick GM title to put on his CV.
It's just lucky he's not been able to set a more believable level to cheat at though :-(
