Reply to "Laser Jammer Anyone?"

An amusing story from years past on jammers (most of which do not work as tested by C & D magazine years ago) about a long-haul salesman who got stopped regularly in extortionist SE U.S.speed traps. So he paid significant bucks to an electronics whiz, who installed a motorhome microwave oven on his Mercedes' dash. The klystron tube circuit had been dirtied up a bit and the rear shielding removed "for cooling".

When the salesman blazed through a speed trap again, the cop's detector showed varying numbers from 0 to 250 mph, so the cop roared after him and pulled the guy over. As Officer No-No walked up to the car and began to yell about FCC violations, a 'ding' was heard. The salesman reached over and removed a toasted cheese sandwich from the dash microwave unit, took a bite and politely offered the dumbfounded officer half!

True or not? Dunno, but entertaining.
