I'm far from an RF expert (and keep in mind that theory and practice of RF,
especially the "practice" part, can get a little bit strange up in the GHz
ranges used by police radar).... however I do know that there is at least one
company, Bel, selling a radar detector that is claimed to be invisible to the
radar detector detectors. 

I imagine that "properly shielding" the unit is kinda tough when it has to have
an open feedhorn to receive the signals it's trying to detect!
