Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Why Infiniti FXs and GM SUVs sucketh

[Dennis Liu (BigHeadDennis]

Lordy, tell me about it!!!

Luckily, my V1 usually denotes these false signals as Ka band warnings, and
the Mass State Police doesn't use Ka (laser and K-band), at least not yet.
Using the arrows, I can quickly figure out which one is the offending
vehicle.  That's when I get in front of them, then blast them with the
hand-held Bushnell radar gun.  They panic, brake, switch lanes, and my
thirst for karmic retribution is fulfilled!

Vty,

Amen, brother!!

Same goes for cheapskates who buy leaky radar detectors where the V1 will
pick up their internal oscillators. Drives me crazy to tuck in behind a slow
car for miles waiting to encounter the trap, only to eventually figure out
that said slow car is employing a POS off-brand detector which is spewing
forth its own radiation in worse quantities than some police radar units...

Grrr.
