STi is NOT Detectable!

[ActiveKAjam]

Didn't see anyone else post this so I thought I should as I thought this was important for the people who use the STi in illegal areas. Apparently, there's a new spectre called the Spectre IV+ , alpinestars_2002795 mentions it is detectable at roughly 500ft

There is a New R.D.D. that can detect the STi Driver at roughly 500ft.
It is already being demo'd in Canada.

After reading apline's post, I decided to go on one of the spectre sites and it used to say the spectre detects all but two but now it's changed and says

The Spectre IV and IV+ spot radar detectors by detecting electromagnetic "leakage" from a component common to every radar detector, the local oscillator. Some manufacturers try to screen out the leakage with shielding; others try to adjust the leakage to a frequency that the Spectre isn't sensitive to. So far all radar detector manufacturers have failed and their products are easily detected by the Spectre.

I guess this also means the 9500CI and the STi-R are detectable as well since they use the STi's antenna. Just trying to keep the people who depend on the STi informed.

If a device can pick up the STi from 500 ft, it will pick up every other signal within the bandwidth, from miles and miles away.

In other words the LEO's RDD would be going off 24/7, worse than a V1 in "A" mode, at an automatic door-opener convention.

Until I see proof, this is just another RDD company talking $h!t again.

lol, that was a rumour from like 2 years ago..lol

I have a spectre IV+ and I can assure you it cant detect STi or STi R

The spectre IV has a extra horn and CW filtering..nothing special.

Now, back to that beer.

Sounds like more b.s they usually claim this once a year.

deja vue. Won't this myth ever die? I ran into a VA State Leo last Friday that had a Spectre IV and he was in the car next to me. Pretty scarey! Alas, it was not alerting to the STi.

Sorry guys I didn't know. Was just trying to help people out that's all. I didn't know the RDD companys spread b.s. every year.

Exactely .

By the way I saw Elvis at WallMart serving in the T-shirt dept...
not the ex-jammer guy ....the Real One

Thanks for keeping us on alert

haha sometimes a little research helps, that thread from alpine was over a year ago...check the dates eh
