need advice on a radar jammer to buy(pain in the ass few weeks)

so it started out last week im driving home (in westchester) from buying some lunch and was pulled over for following too close to the guy in front for me. long story but the cop was right behind me and i couldnt break enough cuz he would have hit me but w/e. I have the court date to fight it in march 18.

but on my way home from a snowboarding trip from Jiminy Peak in Mass i was on the taconic parkway, and im fully aware, holiday weekend theirs gonna be tons of state troopers out. i roll my windows down(5% tints) so not to attract too much attentions and have my cruise control set to 63 and just chillin in the right lane.

Next thing i know i look in my rear view and BAM!! State trooper behind me with his light goin, so i pull over and he said he got me for speeding doing 72 in a 55. The cop was giving me a hard time so i just shut up and took it(wasnt in the mood to be arrested). also wrote me an inspection sticker ticket.
so i pull away now i set my cruise control to 53 so not to get pulled over again. But wouldnt u know it 2 miles down the road i get pulled over again cop came up to the window and i told him i had the cruise control set on 53 and said their were people passing me in the left, he was like i dont want to hear it and wrote me another ticket for 67 in a 55. Now im pissed because i know i wasnt doing anything wrong, so another 5 miles goes buy and i have my cruise control set to 48 now and WOW!! im being followed by another state trooper but he didnt pull me over. after a few mins of following me he gets off an exit(guess he got tiard of being behind me) but yet again it happend again about another 10 miles down the road i get pulled over and i just showed him the 3 other tickets i got and he laughed and said have a nice day.
soo im thinking they just called ahead to other cops and told them about me because it was ridiculous, it only stopped because i got off and took some back roads till i was off the taconic.

i currently have the Passport 8500 X50 Blue but im tiard of being pulled over, im allready gonna buy a cb-radio to listen to truckers chat to see where the cops are but im not sure of a jammer to get need some advice bad because at this rate im gonna have my license revoked

ps, sorry for the long post im just kinda venting right now

no^ they are not illegal here, nor are they difficult to find. there are many options available, and FWIW the SRX was proven to be faulty in independent testing, ie. guys of lidar.

SRX isn't a jammer. Its a radar/laser detector.

Radar Jammers are illegal in all 50 states because they operate on radio waves which are under the control of the FCC.

no the SRX has the ZR3's in it... Laser Shifters... the SR7 is just the Radar/Laser detector. Do your homework before you post...

If you want to learn more about detectors and jammers, go check out the forum over at http://www.radardetector.net/ really good source for people who want to learn more about counter-measures.

Laser jammer such as Laser interceptor and Shifter and Laser pro park are legal.
Radar jammers are illegal.

I have a LI dual heads in front and it work wonders.

from my knowledge having the laser shifters installed...the zr3's are standalone units operated separate of the radar, because i don't have the srx.
