Talking Detctors/scanners/etc.

we all know we need to have them. And we all know the V1 is the detector to have.
But what brand of scanner/jammer/CB will every one be using.
I have a 800mhz radio shack scanner, with a 3ft. extention and above 75-80mph all I get is fuzzzz. Need something better!

I don't think Valentine1 works that way.

Personally, my car will be equipped with:

Valentine1 detector.
Lidatek Laser Echo LE-20 laser jamming
Uniden BC796D Digital (APCO) Trunking Scanner
C.B. Radio
FRS/GMRS 2-way radio
Cellphone
(and a co-pilot who knows how to work all this shit)

scanners are for listening to police activity

cb radios are for communicating with truckers about the road ahead

I'll break it down so its really freakin easy:

When you see my brake lights come on, and the nose of my car take a dive... you better get the hell on your brakes too.

FastrTHNu, might I recommend the Uniden 796D from scannerworld?

http://www.scannerworld.com/template...product=BC796D

Better get training your co-driver on how to use it.. its pretty f'ing complicated.

That didn't work this past april when some a**hole cop slapped me with 5 tickets, $1000.00 in fines and 6 points.

The judge dropped it down to $160.00 in fines (I plead guilty on one) and no points.
