Howdy all! Joined up here, need to keep the learning flowing. Such a great hobby, so much to know. I already recognize a lot of names here, so I know it's a good community. Looking forward to not only sharing what I have learned, but also acquiring some new knowledge.

Oh, just a few things...
I've got a 2003 Suburban, lovingly nicknamed the "big white beast" - To help protect it there is a LI Quad HP, I had it tested a while ago, and the results were pretty good. Then there is the V1 with a CD and the V1C - that's the 3.893 version with custom sweeps courtesy of YaV1 on the Moto X which also runs waze. That sits in a half ProClip / half SlipClip mount, as the ProClip doesn't have anything that will fit the phone once I have the otterbox on it, so the proclip part attaches to the dash, while the slipclip part holds the phone in its case. Then there are 2 ITB-100 dashcams, 1 front, 1 rear, each with a 32GB sony SD card. (Plus a backup SD card in the console for "just such an emergency.") I also have a Kenwood D710A ham radio which can also receive the local dispatch / sheriff in my area and also runs APRS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Packet_Reporting_System). Let's also not forget the Wilson 4G Cellular Signal Booster and a Garmin GPS. Top it all off with a SuperBumper (http://www.superbumper.com/) on the back and done! (For now, anyways...)

Yup.. People tend to stay back a bit at lights and in parking lots. The psychological value is enormous!
