Ifa VG-2 signal is still present, the unit continues to hide andrepeats the VG-2 alert. If no signal is detected, two beepsare provided, indicating an “all clear” condition. During aVG-2 Alert X, K, and Ka band signals cannot be received.Having a laser/radar detector does not make you invisible orimmune to laser/radar guns. As in the case with detectinginstant-on radar, there are some circumstances that the VG-2may detect your laser/radar detector before the laser/radarcan detect the VG-2 signal in time to hide. (Reference page23 for Radar Detector ‘Detector’ information.)Alert PriorityWhen two or more signals are received at the same time,the alert priority is:1. Laser2. VG-23. Speed Radar4.

SPEED MONITORING TECHNOLOGIESof the laser gun’s narrow beam. A radar gun’s transmissioncan cover more than a four-lane highway at a distance of1,000 feet, compared with a laser transmission which coversabout 3 feet at the same distance. For best protection, keepthese points in mind:• Do not follow closely behind any vehicle you cannot see through. If you can’t see past a vehicle ahead of you, chances are your detector won’t either.• The receiving range of your laser detector will not be the same as a radar detector. Laser guns are most often used at short range.Whistler Laser/Radar detectors receive all current laser gunswhich operate at a laser wavelength of 905 +/- 10mm.• Pro Laser™ I II III • LT1 20-20 • Ultra LyteOther Speed Detection SystemsSeveral techniques other than radar or laser are used tomeasure vehicle speeds. When these methods are beingused, no detector can provide a warning. These techniques include:• Pacing - A patrol car drives behind you and matches your driving speed.• Vascar/Aircraft - The time it takes a vehicle to travel a known distance is measured.Radar Detector ‘Detectors’: VG-2, SpectreThe Interceptor VG-2, or simply VG-2, is one type ofmicrowave receiver used by police to detect signals radiatedby the local oscillator of a radar detector. Because its purposeis to identify persons driving with radar detectors, thesedevices are known as a “radar detector detector”(RDD).An RDD is the primary tool used by the police to identify 23SPEED MONITORING TECHNOLOGIES22Radar FactsA radar gun operates by transmitting radio waves at certainfrequencies which reflect off objects and are picked up bythe radar gun’s receiving section. When a radar beamreflects off a moving target, a measurable frequency shiftoccurs. The radar unit converts this shift into miles per hour todetermine your vehicle’s speed. Currently, the FCC (FederalCommunications Commission) permits operation of trafficradar guns at X Band (10.500 - 10.550 GHz), K Band (24.050- 24.250 GHz), and Ka Band (33.400 - 36.000 GHz).NOTE:A radar detector will not alarm if an officer is nottransmitting on any one of the above radar bands.POP™ModePOP™Mode is a feature on some newer radar guns operat-ing on K and Ka bands. When the gun is in POP™Mode andactivated, a brief burst of energy, less that 1/15 of a second,is transmitted and the vehicle’s speed is quickly acquired. Adetector without POP™Mode detection capability cannotrespond to this brief transmission. Total Band Protection™Complete Band Coverage that detects laser, radar, VG-2and safety radar bands.Laser FactsIt’s well documented that many radar guns cannot reliably providethe speed of a targeted vehicle that is traveling in a groupof vehicles. In contrast, a laser gun can target a specific vehicleout of a line of traffic and determine its speed. The advantageof laser over radar in terms of target identification is the result

If caught in a state or countrywhere detectors are illegal, (see page 21), drivers risk losingtheir radar detector and receiving a fine. In addition, instant-on radar is almost always used in combination with a RDD,leaving unsuspecting motorists vulnerable to receiving two tickets — one potentially for speeding, the other for possessionof a detector.NOTE: Having a radar detector capable of detecting the VG-2 may alert youto the presence of a speed trap. The newest tool Police have to detectradar detectors is called Spectre.
