The Wraith Jamming codes are a technology used by the Wraith to prevent Asgard beaming technology from locking onto target in or near Wraith ships.
Overview
The technology exists as an electromagnetic field which surrounds the ship preventing the technology from obtaining a lock. The technology appears to require it to be activated and is not functioning all the time but even then the technology may have weakeness which can be exploited. These codes were created and distributed before the Wraith civil war started and most, if not all, of the ships are still using it. The field can be affected by extreme gravitational disturbances such as a black holes which renders it useless.
