Desmond hands you the [COGWAVE JAMMER] and tells you to head for the Ferris Wheel at the fairground and place it on there.  When it reaches the highest destination, Professor Calvert’s transmission will be blocked.

This video goes over the possible options you have when doing this mission. Also see the walkthrough for the possibilities.

When you walk around the boardwalk, Calvert will start speaking to you, asking you to not place the jammer but instead dump it in a trash compactor nearby the Ferris Wheel.  This leaves you with two choices:

1. Destroy the jammer by dumping it in the trash compactor.  This doesn’t affect anything big yet, so you might want to consider doing this.

2. Placing the jammer on the Ferris Wheel.  This will turn any tribals hostile near the cathedral, although any tribals with names will only attack you if they see you fighting with other tribals.

In either case, the Calvert Mansion blows up when you arrive.  Check for the Panic Room hatch among the ruins to scavenge the following things inside:

[AMMO BOX x2], [SCOPED .44 MAGNUM], [COMBAT ARMOR], [SHOTGUN SHELLS x42], [.44 ROUNDS x12 (x3)] and a [NUKA COLA QUANTUM].  There are also two [WILD PUNGA FRUITS] on the desk.
Make your way to the lighthouse for the final showdown.
