Moriar, you wanna bet? I was in the car w/ a friend who had a detector on the ARMREST (ie impossible to see, and prob very bad range as well, since it can't even see through the windshield), and a cop came through traffic and pulled us over. We had no idea WHAT he pulled us over for, as we weren't speeding. He flat out told us "where's the radar detector?" We looked at him bewildered. He told us he was using a radar detector detector, and knows we have one. We handed it over.

Also, if this is BS, why does V-1 make the VG3 chip? Call 'em and ask

I definitely wouldn't rely on that bro..

The only reason there are any innovations in that industry is because we keep pushing to be protected from radar and they keep pushing to catch us protecting ourselves.. so it keeps progressing so our latest and greatest technology is matched with theirs.

I'm not saying your uncle is a moron, but I am saying you are. Maybe you misinterpreted him.
