This thread is not to debate the rights and wrongs and legal ins and outs of what I am about to suggest.

So, scamera van in a layby, pavement, whatever.

Me hiding down the road with a perminantly triggered SLD920 / whatever jammer aiming at the scamera.

Would this jam it or cause enough irratation for it to move on?

Not technically minded, but can't see why it wouldn't work....

Good luck mate. Send us all a post from C-Wing if they give you access to a computer, and bring plenty of shower gel (NOT soap!)

Yes very techinically possible. However, if i was you, (especially if its plods manning the van) id fire the jammer remotely, just in case they can see the source on their video...all theyll then get is a device and no one to nick for playing with em.

A spin off from this would be all the drivers theyd stop and accuse of having jammers on their cars...theyd soon get fed up of the aggro when they were proved wrong..

I am just wondering how to force an SLD 920 head to go on full jam mode all the time. Going to take the rear one off my bike probably and try it.

It aint gonna work unless you run in front of every car that's been targeted.

Tests performed with cptsideways suggest otherwise. If the jammer unit is being AIMED toward the source then it seems to confuse it enough not to get a reading

Sounds like a top idea!

We just need to get em manufactuured real cheap and then go around sticking em to trees near areas that are commonly targetted.

It could be called the 'fog of scameratti' - 1000's of them covertly placed up and down the country

You can change the 'fog' word a little if you like - drop the 'og' add a 'uck' and then put another 'f' on the end of 'of' - the message would be quite clear methinks.

Really? In that case I'll eat my hat and bow to your superior knowlege.

I'd have thought a device with a narrower beam targeted towards the laser gun would have been more use. How about a laser gun aimed at a laser gun?

Ghost, I've been having a look at the sld920. As far as I can see it has got two transponders, presumably for front and rear protection, is that the case?. If so, starting to look VERY useful.

isn't there a duty cycle, so you have let the diodes cool?

A commercial class 3 904nW laser, aimed at the detector lens of the LTI and pulsed will destroy the receive side of the devioce.

On a car, no. Its one for each side of the front. On a bike because the profile it thinner then yes it does work like that. I have it like that on my bike.

Only on the LRC range.

The SLD's use standard infra red not the gallium arsenide diodes.

Yes is the answer, however it does'nt have to be fixed to a car, pushbike, radio controlled rabbit etc etc.

SLD's are prooving somewhat more effective than the garage door opener variety by the way. Not what I was expecting but tis the case.

They're all gallium arsenide (sometimes with other group III or V elements as well). You don't get into other semiconductors until you get to much shorter wavelengths.
