RMR Radio Ads

Looks like we may be getting relief from Mike Churchman’s radio ads that have been playing on the airwaves for his Phasor radar jammer.
On March 9, 2007 Michael Carowitz confirmed in a letter to US Senator Kay Hutchingson that his office has been following through with this issue along with citing several dealers of the RMR products and issuing a Notice of Liability on Rocky Mountain Radar.
Today I contacted the advertising department at XM radio and although they couldn’t confirm that they have pulled Mike’s ads, they did confirm that there was a memorandum floating around their office saying as such.
We will follow though with this and post any new information once it becomes available.

Q3 Innovations

With the recent ruling by the Federal Communications Commission, Attowave, the manufacture of Rocky Mountain Radar detectors has been in a tailspin. Not only are they in danger of losing RMR as their last major account in the US, they also lost PNI last year when they pulled out of the radar detector industry.
Q3 Innovations based in Iowa to the rescue. They have purchased the remaining inventory from PNI Sensoro and are also working on developing a new line up that they plan on offering later this year with Attowave as the manufacture.
PNI hit it big last year when Costco began carrying their Traveler Series radar detectors as an exclusive in their stores. However this win was not enough to keep their company solvent in the competitive radar detector industry.
Hopefully Q3 can do with PNI could not and offer a new exciting radar detector line up for the second half of 2007.

Guys of Lidar

On March 9th through March 11th, Radarbusters hosted the Guys of Lidar (GoL) “Radar Detector and Laser Jamming Test” in Wickenburg Arizona.
The GoL team is made up of radar detector and laser jammer enthusiasts from across the US and Canada and we paid for their transportation costs to come out to our testing course to test all the latest speed countermeasure equipment.
We also had representatives from Beltronics, Laser Interceptor whom made the trip from Croatia, and Cheetah that made the trip from Scotland.
The GoL members methodology involves setting up “worst case scenarios” to test the effectiveness of the speed counter measure equipment. We also had two police officers whom were both certified in radar and laser enforcement, whom the GoL consulted with during the setting up of these exercises.
During the first couple days we experienced a “weird” Ka radar signal that basically flooded our original testing area, so at the morning briefing the GoL identified an alternate location that their testing site was moved to.
The highlight of the event for me is when they outfitted my 45’ Renegade RV with a prototype of the Laser Interceptor. Wagers were taken at punch through distances for the first run and no one bet on “Jam to Gun”, which it did!
I commend the GoL for their high level of professionalism and dedication. They endured my cooking, one hungry rattler and the hot Arizona sun to provide a very comprehensive radar detector and laser jamming test.
