I'm pretty baseline about how detectors work etc. Can someone explain or mail me how the theory of it works. (I understand the basics of reflections etc, is it Dopler-ish?) What's to stop you syncing in with the Speed Detector and sending back info to say that you are doing 500mph? Slower may not work because the radar would probably settle for the highest conmtinuous speed, so why not tell it that you are absolutely hiking along. And when you get stopped in your 1963 1.3l ford for pulling 540mph, you need simply say "Yeah sure..." "...take me to court" -- %SYS-E-NOSIG, signature file mutilated by foreign power. %SYS-I-DEFSIG, using emergency signature Simon Travaglia, University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand.
