I think this might be the main reason why your CB expeince isnt stellar.... not sure though.[/quote]

I have never had any problems with my cheap CB setup. It functions as well as can be expected....

Not to bring up an old post, but I was under the impression that the windshield was actually the very best place to shoot laser and get a reading. I believe I heard an officer tell Outrun this very...

The most truthful answer is no. Many people buy through the glass antennas and are sadly disappointed with there performance. In CB, the larger the antenna the better the range. This is basically due...

I have a chepo Maxon handheld CB running DC power from the cig lighter and is hooked up to a Radio Shack $25 magnetic mount antenna. I can tell you that CB radio will inherently have lots of static...

holein1,

I checked the radio reference database and noticed that Seattle / King County has an analogue Motorola Type II SmartZone system in use....

Hey guys,

Sorry it has taken me so long to reply to this thread. I kinda forgot about it until tonight. This link shows all of the known trunked radio systems in Ontario:...

Start by telling me which state, county and system you are trying to monitor. I own a Pro-94 myself and can probably help you program it with that information. There is a chance you might have an...

Just to clarify, the two main APCO 25 digital scanners available are the Uniden BCT-396T and the Radio Shack Pro-96. These will follow Motorola digital and analogue trunked systems and EDACS...

If the system info says it is Motorola APCO-25 Common Air Interface then it is digital. If it says Analog and APCO-25 Common Air Interface then some of the talk groups are digital and some are...

Since it seems that you are new to the whole scanning hobby you should know that it is not a simple as buying one, turning it on and listening to Police traffic. It is possible to scan the entire...

Like everyone else has stated, a CB is definitely the best way to hear about speed traps. Truckers on Ch 19 are more than happy to call to their buddies down the road that a smokey or bear is up the...

My SWS and "Strobe Alert" on my old Cobra would only alert when I was ~100ft from a vehicle. The strobe worked on police vehicles only at night and I only picked up one SWS warning from a DOT truck...

Well, my state patrol uses a conventional mobile extender UHF frequency that can only be picked within a mile to two miles of the actual officer. I have it set as a priority channel in my scanner and...

I'm from Atlanta, near Emory University, but go to school up in Athens.

Yeah, but it would have to detect it to be able to project a jamming signal. The jammer is not always on (from my understanding) so it would have to scan for POP and then activate to be effective....

Does the new Scorpion "Ultimate" KA Jammer Detector also have the ability to jam POP? Obviously, radar jamming is highly illegal, but is jamming POP a real possibility? It says it can jam Instant On...

I have XRS9500 and it had decent detection on K and Ka when I first purchased it. I ghetto hard wired it to the courtesy light with no in-line fuse; it was powered on when I would put the sun visor...

That is a really good question and if the cruise control system is affected there could be some very bad results with drivers using it and not paying attention while they drive. With rear laser...

Does this imply that LEO's will have to have the LA gun mounted on a tri-pod on the side of the road or on a mounting unit inside the car pointed out the window. Seems to me if it requires an...

Where exactly are you in Georgia?

I'm guessing Car & Driver. . .

Guys,

I apologize for posting about false info on RD bans. I know I can't stand it when people speculate about BS. I miss read the Valentine website where it talks about a nationwide ban on RD's...

Nice video, article and info!! Some of the Spectre proof devices you showed near the end of the video look huge and near impossible to conceal, which would defeat the purpose of having one. I find...

Interesting idea, in theory it would seem like this would be very effective in alerting the detector to low power, indirect laser waves. I wonder why it has not caught on with the big 3 manufacturers...

He could have been using a low power Ka gun with instant on. Another possibility is that he was targeting a vehicle behind you with instant on and you barely picked him up shooting that vehicle. The...
