A good HF radio will do that in CW (continuous wave, also known as morse code). I had a shelter that had two radios capable of 1000W, it also served as a MARS radio switch (telephone capability). I figured out the CB freqs and could talk to truck drivers anywhere in the US. The shelter was set up about 1/4 mile from a highway and I fried a dude's CB in CW. He was walking on folks and wouldn't let them on the channel. I warned everyone I was going to transmit in CW and told them to clear the channel for 5 minutes. I keyed up the radio while I was standing in the door of the shelter. I saw a semi scream to a stop on the side of the road and a guy bail out, with smoke rolling out of the cab. No more problems on that channel...
