    Default Re: 2009-2010 SML test are up

    My questions are:
    The cobra is invisible to everything?

    Do these people seriously sit in the flat desert and shoot guns to see how high the signal measures on the detector? I guess they have never heard of over the hill or around the corner.

    Who has time to sit at the computer and type out pages and pages of words that sound good and mean nothing?

    I was going to say the same thing about santa using laser now. I guess he has to make sure the reindeer aren't flying above the speed of snow.

    SML is like eating at a 5 star restaurant. You've just had exquisite, food, drinks and service. The next day you wake up feeling terrible with a fever and diarrhea. Then, you turn on the news and hear the place is shut down because of salmonella.

    Heck, even my v1 tells me when a cobra is nearby.

    I know. That is absolute crap. There is no way a Cobra is stealthy. I bet you I could take that exact detector hold it next to one of mine and it would false it.

    I don't want to come off like I'm defending Cobra, or SML, but you guys have to think of the mechanics of it. Just because the Cobra is leaky as hell and sets off our detectors doesn't mean it will set off an RDD. It's all about WHAT the LO board leaks, not just that it leaks at all. Being that cops looking for RD users are using an RDD and not a V1, they don't have to worry about not leaking AT ALL, they just have to worry about leaking on the right frequency. It is not outside the realm of possibility that Cobra has tuned their LO to leak on frequencies that the RDDs don't pick up.

    All that being said...there are a few flags on that spreadsheet that make me want to call shenanigans on the whole friggin thing.

    Haa, haaaa, what a CIRCUS!!!
    Simply buy the cheapest Cobra and you're ready to go!

    Is it some sort of April Fools?
    Why they employ Dwarfs?
    Where are STi-R and 9500ci - are they as good as $99 Cobras?

    I propose change the name of this... this... this SML - it should be AWT: Annual Wasting of Time

    I don't know why they are scared they would do fine against these test's, a RMR would look like a solid performer at SML. These tests are worthless.

    It's interesting that Spectre IV has less range than Spectre III.

    If SML can put on this crappy uninformative test for $7000 I can't imagine what GOL could do with that budget, It would be insanely informative and a bang up test.

    I love how they pretend that the companies were invited and it was free to come. SML actually charges an entrance fee, and the detectors and jammers are provided by the dealers/company reps. That really isn't unbiased.

    As with the laser jammer test, nice PROTOTYPE testing SML. They tested a jammer that wasn't even in retail form. How can they pretend to be a retail test when the jammer is still not available to the public. Blinder also put a nice dig on those that it THINK are violating their patent. Got news for you Blinder how about you actually prove your statements before you go speading lies. Innocent until proven guilty! At least thats the stance of all Blinder executives and reps when I ask them about their violations of the 3 Lidatek Patents they violate. Nice double standard Blinder!
