Hi carboncopy,

A couple of months ago, late at night, I could swear that I came across a new low power X band hand held radar gun announcement from one of the radar gun manufacturers. Maybe I dreamed it, even though I do recall thinking, "Man, this would be an ideal unit for police to use in cities since most people ignore X band and some people turn off X and on their radar detectors." Anyway, I've searched for two days now and can't find the page and photo which is in my memory. The unit was really compact and looked a lot like a Stalker hand held Ka unit. Alas, with age, my memory must be playing tricks on me.

I do have a question for GOL or Jimbonzzz. While searching for this mystical X band hand held gun, I came across a statement that X band is no longer licensed for use in the U.S. by law enforcement? Of course, I know that one of the northeastern states still uses X band because of an unbelievably long state contract? There is too much work related stuff in my head to even remember what state it is that still uses X band.

Best Regards,

--Michael
