LOJACK will provide a list of agencies that have recievers.
 They might even have a website, I haven't looked.
 There were places on the list that I wouldn't have expected, like South
 Africa, South America, Russia, etc.
 Something to consider, many auto thefts are for export to Foriegn countries.
 Harleys are currently getting bagged by the thousands for export. The LOJACK
 has many case histories involving recoveries of stolen vehicles in containers
 aboard ships and at the docks, so there's always the chance of getting it
 back even if your jurisdiction doesn't have a tracker.
 The beacon is recieved by ANY unit within it's transmitter output, so imagine
 the "cop on the beat" when his beacon locator starts to beep!
 Can you say "Felony arrest"?

 P.S. I'll be the first to admit that there's no sure fire way to protect your
 property from theft. I'm satisfied with the prospect of recovery, especially
 if it leads to arrests.

Well these things sound very good, is there a monthly fee type of thing, or a pay one (for it) adn you set to go?
