Can I convert a radar dectector into a radar transmitter? > >John >jsevinsk@digi.lonestar.org The old ones usually already are... due to the leakage of RF from the local oscillator. Another possibility is a 2 meter handheld (about 2 watts) should trigger the detector due to n-th harmonic radiation. If not, connect a diode to the antenna and go again.
