Have we heard any word how the Iraqis detonate those IEDs? There ought to be ways to interfere, pre-detonate or otherwise mess up some of their attacks. Sure would be fun to set some of those bombs off while they are still handling them.

I read somewhere that US troops have found "wireless doorbell sets" in weapons caches.

Okay, time for a new tagline.

There ought to be ways to ...pre-detonate ...

Hoist them on their own petards?

I too, heard about the "wireless doorbell set" and have read about automotive lock remotes as well.
These all use fairly standard signals that should be available from the manufacturers.
Simple transmitters and a string of standard signals could be sent out ahead of a convoy to detonate any such radio/wireless devices before any vehicles reach them.

Likewise, planes and/or helicopters could do fly-overs of common bombing sites, and transmit detonation signals.
This could be done not only by day, but at night, when said devices are being "installed".

Such "nocturnal transmissions" could result in premature explosive activation, causing severe loss of self-esteem in the terrorist bomb squads, a lack of desire to try again, and a lack of vigor in pursuing additional engagements. (comedy double entente OFF)
