Re: Do the jammers actually work? S80 2000

From what I've read in the car mags, the jammers that you can actually buy aren't powerful enough to work.

You can construct a jammer that actually works, but I believe purchasing some of the components requires an FCC license.

Besides, there's always VASCAR, or aircraft, and a jammer is no defense against that. Also, if you blow by a cruiser doing 150, do you think he'll ignore it even if his radar says "55"? I doubt it! He'll assume his radar was malfunctioning, and write you up for 120.

"Stealth" seems to work best, though....I was thinking of adding a stuffed Airedale Terrier to the rear compartment for that "innocent" touch.
