What is an Active Radar Jamming Device?
Active
Radar Jammers, such as our Phantom
XP, detect an RF signal from an X-band or K-band radar
gun. The RCD immediately begins to lock onto the incoming
radar frequency, and then sends back an overpowering noise
signal to the radar gun. When the radar gun receives this
noise signal, the radar gun's microprocessor begins to
track the wildly changing, false Doppler signal from the
RCD. As long as the radar gun microprocessor is kept busy
tracking a false and ever-changing Doppler signal, it
can't display a speed reading; therefore the gun display
remains blank.
During this period of time, the RCD has alerted you to
either X or K radar, allowing you to safely adjust your
speed to the posted speed limit, at which time you shut
the RCD off, allowing your adjusted speed to be detected
by the radar gun. Since your speed is now at the posted
speed limit, the radar gun operator pays no more attention
to you, and starts searching for the next victim.
