My phone is off when it's off. End of story. Move along, nothing to see here.

Now back to your regularly scheduled tractor discussion.

Another problem with LoJack is the law enforcement agencies in your area need to have cars with the LoJack receivers in them and not every agency has them.

Look with police cars that have 4 18 inch antennas in a square pattern on the roof.
If they have 3 13 inch antennas in a triangle that is for the ETS Pronet bank robbery systems.

Whew! Thanks for the update! We were just putting on the ski masks when I saw your post....:laughing: (joke)

That assumes the thief is smart. Seeing as how he's already decided to steal something instead of work for it, we can generally eliminate that possibility. LoJack claims a 98% recovery rate, so we can start with the assumption that only 1 out of 50 thieves have a clue.



I get the exact same results by turning it off. Cheaper, too. :)

It's entirely accurate. I don't have an iPhone. :D

As a few of you know, turning off the phone does not remove it from the system. It can be remotely turned on, remotely have the camera turned on and all without any visible sign to the owner. It's not done regularly and is supposed to only be done with a court order. If you want real privacy, you need to either use a foil bag with thick metal or pull the battery.

If you can turn on the camera on my cell phone remotely, I'll give you a million dollars. Really, seriously, truly.

I'll give you a nickel if you can figure out why I'm willing to make this bet (and also why I'm so sure off is off...)

I would think that all towns and state equipment have some sort of tracking system like lojack. I would think they'd have to considering they leave large tractors and batwing mowers on the side of the highways at night.
