Okay.

Don't call us, we'll call you.  You'll be easy to find. :-]

What difference does it make?  Here's what you wrote in another
message in this same thread:

Perhaps the cop who stops you will be an ex-military type who also
like to build crap (oh, excuse me, you said scrap) and will extend to
you some professional courtesy.

>Ha! Remember, it's a
>violation of FCC regs so they'd have to nail me.

Here's how it works:  We catch you, they charge you.

What kind of a homebrew computer did you use to write this post and
how about your homebrew car?

>Laser jammers are plentiful and legal.

Because they're worthless.

>Stupid cops should stick to X-band,

Which is used by radar, not lidar.  X-band still works quite well
though, I used x-band units for years and never had a problem catching
the detector equipped speeder.

>still the toughest out there to counter and detect.

It's the easiest, not the hardest.

>Ka is an expensive gimmick.

That works.
