Stealth01 is on a distinguished road
Default Nice 35.5 Encounter

Heading to Lowe's today, turning from a North-south road onto the westbound lane of a different road. Immediately (before I was even through the turn), as I was getting ready to punch it and work through traffic, I got a 5-bar 35.5 ka-band hit. Cruise controlled it at the limit, and watched it ramp up. Went up to 7, then down to 2 when I was at the base of a hill, then at the top of the hill -- full strength.

And there was a State Trooper on the opposite side, with a customer pulled over. All total, a 1.3 mile 35.5 hit, though I suspect it would have been much farther had I been on the E-W road to begin with.

Not a save, since the Trooper was busy, but SO nice of him to leave that radar going for me to play against.



And this comes after a nice Ka hit this morning from a local Deputy following me along a different road. Probably 1.5 miles on that one, from behind.
