Why would it be near impossible to tap? Couldn't you just fly a drone around one of the ground stations and intercept all the communication?

Why bother with a drone? Just drive a van/truck/ATV with appropriate receivers near such ground stations.

You might need a drone with an antenna the same size as the ground station's. I haven't seen the ground stations, but that might be hard to put on a drone.
