That is also one of the reasons why nobody would be able to trace you, the signals is simply too weak!
You don't even imagine how much interference you can get from one small 50nW transmitter in place where signal is weak - you can interfere with radios in ~100m radius with a bit of luck.

Triangulating signal from transmitter like that is quite easy - there are ready systems for this purpose located around bigger cities, and can locate signals instantly (and such systems has existed for 70 years - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephant_Cage) so it's illegal and easy to locate
