Before the days of laser guns, the radar guns gave off so much excess beam that any old detector gave a great warning-never got a ticket of speeding every chance I got in twenty five years.
Nowadays, it appears that when you hear a radar tone, you are being measured. Like its too late. Now I haven't got a radar ticket, but that is the way it appears. Which would make the detector useless. The experts say you have to have aradar signal diffuser mounted on or near the license plate to beat radar. It absords the beam and prevents an echo from being sent back to the radar gun. These difussers aren't cheap; probably in the $1,000 range. Anyone have experience of detecting the radar beam and avoiding the ticket ? |
