   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Morgan

   Dodge David Morgan (January 15, 1932 – September 14, 2010) was an American sailor, businessman, publisher and "self-proclaimed contrarian." [1] He flew fighter jets in the U.S. Air Force in the early 1950s, worked as a newspaper reporter in Alaska, and became a millionaire by operating Controlonics, a company that manufactured Whistler radar detectors from 1971 to 1983.

3. Whistler Group - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whistler_Group

   The Whistler Group was an electronics company based in Bentonville, Arkansas, [1] best known for its radar detectors. Whistler also manufactured power inverters, GPS navigation devices, inspection cameras, LED flashlights, vehicle dashboard cameras, and scanner radios. [2] The company went out of business in 2024 without warning.

4. Radar detector detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_detector_detector

   A radar detector detector (RDD) is a device used by police or law enforcement in areas where radar detectors are declared illegal. Radar detectors are built around a superheterodyne receiver, which has a local oscillator that radiates slightly. It is therefore possible to build a radar-detector detector, which detects such emissions (usually ...

5. Corner reflector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corner_reflector

   A corner reflector for radar testing. A corner reflector is a retroreflector consisting of three mutually perpendicular, intersecting flat reflective surfaces. It reflects waves incident from any direction directly towards the source, but translated.

6. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

   Radar echoes, showing a representation of the carrier. Pulse width also determines the radar's dead zone at close ranges. While the radar transmitter is active, the receiver input is blanked to avoid the amplifiers being swamped (saturated) or, (more likely), damaged.

7. Blind spot monitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blind_spot_monitor

   Optical blind spot detector on side mirrors. The blind spot monitor or blind-spot monitoring is a vehicle-based sensor device that detects other vehicles located to the driver’s side and rear. Warnings can be visual, audible, vibrating, or tactile. [1] [2] Blind spot monitors may do more than monitor the sides and rear of the vehicle. They ...

8. Metox radar detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metox_radar_detector

   Metox was the German answer to the British radar. Metox sets received the transmitted pulses from the ASV and rendered them as audible beeps. It enjoyed the usual advantage of radar detectors over radar in that the signal is direct and only had to travel one way whereas the radar has to detect the very weak reflection from the submarine. [3]

9. Mirror mount - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_mount

   The most common type of mirror mount is the kinematic mount. [3] This type of mount is designed according to the principles of kinematic determinacy. Typically, the movable frame that holds the mirror pivots on a ball bearing which is set into a hole in the fixed frame. Ideally, this hole should be trihedral (pyramid-shaped).
