I heard recently on the evening news that because N.J. is likely to lose about $10M in Fed highway dollars the 55 mph limit would be more strictly enforced. The primary method would be the ubiquitous radar and the attendant Smokey Bear. One of these types said that they had the means to DEFEAT radar detectors by "interrupting" the signal. I do not know whether he meant his emanating signal or somehow interfering with the operation of the detector. My question is directed toward those of you out there that are knowledgeable in such things as radar and detectors: Can the detectors be made unuseable by any method that would be in the hands of a police person? I am wondering if this spokesperson is being truthful or is just firing off a round of Psy war tactics. Please respond to me by mail at mhuxa!rgh and I will collate whatever responses I receive and post them to the net. Thanks in advance, Rich Hamm BTL
