RBT's?
if your drinking you deserve to be cought.

yes they can track them and yes it is a BIG fine and they confiscate the scanner. happened to mate of mine in the middle of peak hour traffic, cop on a bike weeved threw all the trffic and got to his car, pulled him over and fined him. 1st car he went to, so it dont seem that hard for them to find

Yeah the police have radar fector detectors, the fine is like $1000 or so. There are radar decectors out there that are immune to police dectecting them but they are $$$$ and the police will prob soon have a machine to get em. Can u use a UHF radio or wateva is that wat the coppers use, u may be able to pick up on where sum of em are if u on the right channel. -RH

some older nokia phones have radar detectors built into them, theres a code that can unlock them. dont know it tho, but a mate does

I was also told about the Nokia phone thinga-ma-bob-a-mi-doover-lacky. Wouldn't have da foggiest if it works coz i've never been past a radar with it switched on. My mate showed me on my 3330... Go into 'Settings', then 'Security Settings', 'Default Used Caller Group', switch this ON, enter the digits 00000, then o.k. When you go back to the normal logo screen, there should be a little icon that comes up with the 5 zero's. If u pass or aproach a radar, your phone apparently makes the message receiving sound to warn you.
I personally think its a load of bullshit, but as i said B4 i haven't been in a situation to see it work. I have also heard in passing that it's 4 zero's u enter and not 5. Ramblings to explain this where that the cops caught on and switched their radars to a slightly different frequency, and the new number for it was the 5 zero's. Sounds like an urban myth to me, but a good gimmick between pissed mates none the less.

they can't detect hand held scaners we used to
use them all the time when there was a meeting of a few of us saved us from lot's of fines a few times
