Snoopers.... Do they really work ?

[tiggy]

Morning everyone !

Before anyone complains, I know I've posted this on the PCGB Forum already but I thought I'd go for a wider audience.

After some opinions ( as the title suggests) on the following:

Coming into work this morning, approaching well known Gatsco camera site. Morpheous give a chirp about 1/2 a mile before and another a couple of hundred yards later as I'm still a bit over !! ( What a great piece of kit )

Snooper ( 815 model ) stays silent. Absolutely bu**er all on approach and as I pass the "big yellow box on a stick".

Now, just to give you the full story I had switched the Snooper on to City mode about 20 minutes earlier, to stop it constantly beeping at me. ( About every 30 seconds the band monitor would beep and it was driving me mad ! )

So.... is the Snooper rubbish / broken or was the Gatsco switched off ( which the Morpheous wouldn't know, as it is just a GPS system with no radar detection and "is not a detector" ( I know this coz it said so on the box !!!)).

I look forward to your replies ( However rude they might be).

I got the Snooper more for its laser capability, in the hope that with the Morpheous for the fixed units and the Snooper for the mobile stuff, then I'd be pretty much covered !!!

Is it right that laser jammers are illegal or only if you're caught !!

Interested to see the view that only Valentine or high end Bel units are any good.

On the Bel units which are the model numbers you would recommend and how much should you be paying ?
