Why bother testing? Only the STI is specter resistant. However it does give you an idea of how far away specter will pick you up if you have an X50.

Have you noticed anything that gives a false alert on the Spectre/Stalcar? GPS, Cell Towers etc. - anything at all?

Thanks for posting that, I have never seen a spectre in action.

And shouldn't this be in the spectre section?

I must also add to this that I would like to see ANY other video or test by ANYONE with a spectre IV+ other than a cop..plenty of II or III but none on Spectre 4+


Yes the spectre will false on microwave phone towers but i just did nearly 500 km and got 3 falses and busted 2 detector users in an illegal state!

Id say thats pretty good odds!

More vids to come!
