Following from that, suppose a jammer parks nearby and doesn't leave

One of my clients had exactly that problem with radar detectors in
parked cars interfering with its satellite earth stations. In that
case, the answer was about three years.
Did the FCC actually DO anything about these things ?
I imagine there are some type acceptance issues that could
be invoked here...
It depends on what's being interfered with. Park your jammer on the
approach to a big airport on a foggy night and jam the glide slope and
localizer, and the DF van will be out there in minutes.
Run a bootleg FM station that doesn't interfere with any one, and you'll
get a NOUO in the mail eventually.
In general, jamming or interfering with public safety gets the attention
and more rapid enforcement actions.
