Don't mean to ruin the party, but any device (read that jammer) that emits
a radio signal ( whether they "force" a number or merely "confuse" the
radar unit) without express consent of the FCC is violating federal law. If
I am wrong please correct me, but from my exposure to aviation
communications, avionics and radar, I don't believe there is a truly
effective radar jamming device available to the general public. It's just
my opinion, but I feel anyone who has one one these devices and not been
caught is living on borrowed time. A radar detector and jammer, by their
very nature, could not even work in close proximity to one another. The
jammer is to emit a signal on a particular freq., the detector is to detect
a signal on a particulat freq. The jammer would be setting off the detector
constantly!!!

It depends on the VG2 "Stealth" circuitry and how the manufacturer(s)
designed them. So far, I have only had a few looks from the troopers
(blank stares) when the jammer went off and as I was passing them.
The "Illegal" jammers are the ones that force a number on their radar
guns/devices. The ones that just "mix" a signal with noise (producing no
reading) are what seems to be the choice these days. (Also one that I
use.)
So far, no tickets but a few close calls...thank god for my Phantom
Detector/Jammer. ;)
