OP updated.
Looking forward to seeing old faces, and meeting some new ones!
I updated the sheets we used last time. There was only room for 12 different cars and setups per sheet. Does anyone see anything that I missed or needs adding?

You know what I believe would be very useful?
Instead of recording close range punch through distances only, use a format of attempting to clock from long range to close range all of the way after each successful reading, repeated re-attempts though the entire range.
In my experiences with either active, passive, or both, PTs can happen at specific times at a variety of distances not just close range.
I would enjoy seeing a test done that way, some day. A lot of useful data could come out of such a test.

Well if you can't get a PT at close Range you certainly aren't going to get it at greater distances. But that's just my experience.
Although that is most of our experience it isn't necessarily true. Most of the testing that has been done, has been on relatively short courses (under 2000 feet). At these distances punch throughs have occurred primarily due to the shooter being outside of the jammer beam or due to the jammer not seeing the LIDAR. Other punch throughs have been due to poor algorithms of various firmwares on various jammers.
As demonstrated by previous RALETC testing performed by RedRocket, some jammer manufacturers use poor quality laser diodes that have voids in their beam. As the distance from the jammer head to the shooter increases the size of the void(s) increase which raises the possibility of a PT at longer distances, due to the shooter being in one such void.
Additionally, as the distance increases from jammer to LIDAR, the jammer beam becomes more diffuse due to its very wide divergence, especially when compared to the much more focused beam of the LIDAR gun. At a point the LIDAR gun may interpret the jammers signal as IR noise and not as return signal.
CJR and others, if you wish to continue this discussion please open a new thread and I will move these posts there.
Please add me to the list. Although I won't participate in the 'testing' itself, I'll be with the shooters and test recorders to lend a hand. Thank you.
Less than 2 weeks away... Looks like it will be a nice turnout. Hoping for some nice weather, Last meet we had I was fried and I looked like a lobster for a few days.
I can't disclose the details yet, but there will be something special at the event.
I have a Wound Warrior ride on Saturday. If I spend the night I can stop thru on the way home. Same spot? No CM's on my ZX-12, but if VeilGuy brings some special stuff we can test it.
Wish I could make this one but will be traveling. Haven't been around for a while and would have been nice to catch up. Hope you guys have a great time.
Howdy stranger,glad to see you're still around.-Don't forget to come back...sooner,next time.

Looking forward to next Sunday.
Yes, knock on wood, weather looking good. Can't wait.
Sigh.

Countdown 6 Days and 16 Hours till the RALETC 2014 Lidar Jammer Meet
Please make sure you post in this thread or sign up on RALETC.com We will be sending out instructions this week and will be doing final counts by mid-week. Please make sure your name is on the list if you plan to attend. Also, if you need a hotel and want to know what's in the area please PM me for details. See you on the 21st!

Room booked and countin' the days......
Brother, they are all like this. Men are from Mars, women live on planet "emotion." On that planet it can be 50 Degrees below zero one second and 120 degrees above zero the next. Want to deal with just the facts? Forget IT! Just remember to bring your parka and swim suit next time you want to communicate. See you at the meet!
Can't wait to test and meet everyone Sunday. Will we get a PM with location info?
So close!
Pre loading the car!
