And here's the documentation for future generations! :P

12. "Try our new 7nm fab they said. You'll be ahead of 10nm competition with few issues. Now, gotta call engineers at the fab to see if it's materials or production messing my custom stuff up. (sighs)"
You'd be surprised how much you can find out just with a $10 TV tuner dongle and a piece of coax with a short section of the outer braid trimmed off at once end.
You're describing my college tv antenna. Coax is cheap. An actual digital antenna is like... 50 ramen equivalents.
50 ramen = $10 USD
RTL-SDR is the Arduino of EMC work. :)

any MCU can "jam" a GPS receiver if the board is laid out improperly or without enough shielding
A bare, free-floating STM32F103 with literally nothing but a LiPo battery connected with two wires, running the blinky.c demo, will completely jam many GPS receivers when placed next to the antenna.
11. "Shit, where do I borrow a spectrum analyzer and a set of near field probes? These things cost an arm and a leg!"
Yes, STM32F1 MCUs generate inference that jams GPS receivers. No, it's not documented anywhere.
