[s-cars] detectors

[chris chambers]

Bob,

that is good advice, when I travel on the highway long distances I also use my 
CB and GPS.
Plus I make sure I have a vehicle traveling in front of me driving the same 
speed or faster (da wabbit).

I've thought about adding one of the newer scanners to my arsenal.

Chris

I also have two V1's.  They are very helpful but when on a long trip 
I supplement them with a CB radio tuned to channel 19 and I listen 
closely to the reports of truckers.  In addition I keep track of my 
location with my GPS unit.  The three-way combination is VERY helpful.
