Hi from the "Gold Cost" of Long Island, NY

[itwasntme]

Hi all, so glad to be here with friends. I am a long time countermeasure user. I had one of the original Escorts and drove around the country with that and a CB radio in the early 80's (read he's old). Well I'm not that old and, over the years my knowledge and experience with various countermeasures has grown. i currently drive a Ford SUV. I was using a V1 running YaV1 with euro custom sweeps on a Samsung S4. But, I stopped using that, for now, due to an interference issue I perceived, during testing, with the Beltronics Stir Plus I also run. On the Stir Plus, the antenna is mounted low under the license plate set to receive all bands. Instead of the V1, I know use, as back up, a Band Seg Escort Redline mounted high to the right side of the rearview mirror, only set to alert to Ka. I run Waze on the Samsung and use a Cheetah C50 for fixed camera alerts. As for laser, I use a Laser Interceptor current gen with two 8.9 heads up front and nothing in the rear. Tired of waiting for the next gen LI and, solutions to current threats, I'll likely be switching to ALP. Didn't want to do another jammer instal on my vehicle. The LI's were switched from another vehicle only last summer. I don't pick sides and, am a fan boy for no specific company or countermeasure. I wish to remain as impartial as possible in my analysis. My only criteria is, does it work and how well? I believe I and, anyone I care about, must have the most comprehensive protection. There has been nothing from the LI quarter in months, no updates and not even a real hint about the next gen. Time waits for no man (remember I'm "old!").

I am friendly, helpful and want to contribute as much as I can to this community. If you feel I can help you with something or you think I have some info that would be useful to you, please reach out to me.

P.S. I also have an LTI Truspeed LR (the high power version) for testing purposes

Welcome to the forum!

LOL.. You did force us to release another video of my Wife's White Acadia to offset the theory that the Color had any factor in the results. In any case ask questions and we will answer them honestly. Welcome to the forum and thanks for being a part of it.
