10/24 Houston Countermeasure Test Results

[8freerunner8]

What a great day of testing, we accomplished a lot, cleared up some misconceptions and improved setups. Our day consisted of three main testing segments:
Laser Jammer Testing
Quick Trigger Testing
Veil G4 Testing

A big thanks to stealth stalker who supplied 90% of the equipment, we couldn't have done it without you!

Quick Trigger Testing

Stalker 34.7 radar gun used
V1 3.872--4/5
V1 3.813--5/5
9500i------2/5
9500ix-----2/5
9500ci------4/5

V1 3.872---5/5 (different V1 than first tested)

Veil G4 Testing
Tested with Laser Atlanta Speedlaser R and LTI Ultralyte LR-B (125 PPS)
Pyrofallout owns a Black Ford Ranger, no jammers and veil has never been applied, perfect test for veil. After taking a baseline reading of his vehicle, we followed the instructions given on the can and applied a good coat of veil to each headlight. Variance came into play heavily, but our results show that veil is effective in non-ambush/close-range situations. After he acquires some jammers, this truck is going to be unstoppable.

Wow, the rear zr4 is worthless. Nice results. Thanks for all the work.

[Pyrofallout]

I learned a bit about my detector today that surprised me. I see a V1 joining my setup soon, but first, I need Jammers!

[crazyVOLVOrob]

Just to let you guys know. The Escort Zr3 does NOT jam or Detect Laser Atlanta stealth mode!

GOL tested this out long long ago back in March 2007

Results seem to be decent but I am looking for a description of the test track and how far the shooter was off the road as well were there any dips or curves

[DrCoke]

I want to see Pics in the M35 front setup. That car got pawned from the front and its gotta be due to setup. I'm very impress with some of the m#7 JFG.

[rsatmans]

Nice testing. Why write down "PT" for the zr3 vs stealth mode? It doesn't even detect it..... One other thing during your QT testing. Do you really think it is fair to count a pull which does not pick up the cars speed 200ft away from the gun as a QT? I would argue no.

Yes we did see that in our Zr3s after we tested my setup, it was a slip of the mind to write down the PTs, you are correct, the Zr3 doesn't alert at all. The course we used was a 2000ft straightaway, in a suburban area. There weren't any dips,bumps or curves on the road. The shooter was standing right on the white line of the lane the test cars were in, in other words all of the setups were facing right at the gun.

While we were testing Erickonphoenix pointed this out, that a QT pull needs to get a speed, but does the gun not emit radar even if it doesn't get a speed reading? If you go back to the videos, some of the detectors alerted even without the stalker getting a speed reading. I understand where you are coming from and next time we do a QT test we will make sure to correct this.

Don't worry rsatman's he will get pulled over again for JTGing a cop and will have to appear in court again. Maybe then he'll learn his lesson
