Default X band radar is still around so keep your eyes peeled!

X band radar is still used in remote places in/around the U.S. I feel this "has" to be listed as so many have forgotten about that good ole' X band. Here is a few areas and feel free to add to the list. Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey, Oregon, some small towns in Michigan such as West Branch, Lapeer, Bay City,Saginaw, some towns surrounding Chicago such as Stickney, Crestwood, Wheaton, Aurora, Freeport IL, and Orangeville IL. I have heard some towns in SouthWest IL have it too, but can't confirm. North Carolina still uses X band in various places, some smaller towns in South Carolina, one report from Chattanooga Tennessee was that someone had picked up X band in the city limits, but can't confirm. Northern Ontario still uses X band especially in the smaller towns. I have heard a friend of mine that picked up X band recently while in Western Pennsylvania. In remote areas of Texas I have heard X band is being used. Mississippi still uses X band which another friend just picked up on his rd while driving through. Oregon is using X band very heavy right now so watch it! Some areas of Colorado are still using X band. Some smaller towns in Kentucky still use X band. Northern Wisconsin may use X band, but SouthWestern Wisconsin does use it to my knowledge. Montana, not sure but wouldn't put it past em'. Any more, because I am tired after writing all of this.

Watch out in those small podunk hick towns in Texas also. I have also heard that some of the towns in/around Houston do pull the X band radar guns off the dusty shelf and use them every once in a while. So you are forwarned!

Don't worry it's just a sales ploy. Unjust is probably dealing X-band radar gun's for somebody. Or is a cop and want's to spark widespread histeria about some X-band threat that no longer exist's.
