    I've seen this a few times in NY recently --


    A pair of exterior mounted antennas, facing away from each other at about 45 degrees, I believe from memory BOTH are usually facing the rear -- it's...

    Re: EZ Pass = laser ?!

    They use laser to check your speed while passing through -- and if you're going too fast, they send you an automatic notice in the mail warning you, saying that they will suspend your EZ-Pass.

    Re: Anything new from VR soon?

    I'll probably stick with another V1 - I was thinking the 9500 ci and ix were basically the same except for being externally mounted and having shifters.. which if I was going for a jammer, would...

    9500ci vs. 9500ix

    Re: Anything new from VR soon?
