    For LJ's, just because an Officer believes they are jammers, he needs evidence to support they are. With the privacy Key removed, the system will not function as Jammers in any way, and thus what evidence does he have? I would throw the USB drive out the window before the stop is complete, or hide it in plain sight in the cabin somewhere before he approaches the driver to start his investigation. If you have a female passenger with you at the time of the stop, she could hide it in her bra or "down below". A male Cop in Ontario is not allowed to search a female. It's like a Cop seeing a bag of what he believes to be Marijuana and testing it and finding out it's something else. Just because it looks like something he "THINKS" it is, doesn't mean it is.

    RD law is well established in this rotten province already. LJ's are unchartered waters here. No matter what the Cop tries, after the USB drive is removed with the privacy key file on it, he will NOT get it to alert or jam his LIDAR gun. I doubt any of them read up on the Privacy Key file / feature of this system. Don't know about QC, maybe there, some LEO's do.

    With how concerned you are why not just install the GPS antenna and no need to do anything. If you are not moving above your set speed the system will not jam anything.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    Is it parking mode only below the set speed, or is it detection only? IIRC, even detectors are illegal in Ontario.

    Detection Only under the pre-set speed.. Price in the US is $49.95 for the GPS Antenna.

    Something to think about. Haven't paid much attention to some of the newer add-on's after I bought my system.

    What's involved with hooking it up to the CPU? How do I program it? I'm currently running my ALP system with the HiFi module.

    Tom , do you think it could be in the wish-list for parking only ?

    How is the transition between ''active''\detect only , and vice-versa , i mean is there any sound that indicates
    the change ? If there is any sound it could become annoying in a stop-go situation (in cities).

    How long is the wire ?

    Thank you.
