    Default 2.5-3 mile warning to K band trap

    driving home today down a major street here in fresno, i got a slowly increasing blip of K. Realized something was up because there arnt usually any falses where i was. Keep driving i get 2 bogyes on the bogy counter, and at about 2.6 miles away (in heavy traffic) i see first a speed sign, then a motorcycle cop hiding in a turn around lane shooting K band also. I immediatly tell Raven and tell him that im gonna stop and ask what kind of gun the FPD are using. I pull over and talk to the motorcycle cop for a good 10-15 min and he tells me that the motorcycle cops use stalker K band handheld guns either in constant or instant on mode. I later tell him that i picked him up from quite a distance and he suddenly got interested in what i had and how i picked him up so far. pretty funny that cops think just like us when their off-duty. :P

    i picked up 2 more cops driving down the same road. one shooting instant on K going the opposite way as me and one just sitting to the side with instant on. good day for the V1. 8)

    What street was this on. We need to alert each other for speed traps.

    I went by after work and they were already gone...

    I think they move locations a couple of times a day, especially if they are not having any luck nabbing people.
