INTRODUCTION
Dear Owner,
Congratulations on your purchase of the world’s most
sophisticated radar and laser detector and scrambler. The
Judge 2.0 is a completely integrated radar and laser
detector which responds not only to all the radar guns in
use today, but to the other latest development in speed
monitoring devices-laser guns.
The Judge 2.0 is the result of Rocky Mountain Radar’s
commitment to provide you, our valued customer, with
the most innovative technologically advanced radar and
laser detectors on the market. The Judge 2.0 was created
for drivers who will not settle for anything less than the
best.

Features:
5 Mile Detection Range:
Full 360° Radar and Laser Detection Full, 5 mile
detection of all bands and frequencies used by police,
including X, K, Ka, super wide bands and all laser. This
radar detector uses micro-scan. It enables our detectors to
scan 2-4 times faster than any other detector, which gives
you a 100% probability of detecting POP Radar. This
technology is unique to Rocky Mountain Radar detectors.
Early Warning Discriminator: (EWD)
The EWD filter prevents false alarms emitted by safety
sensors in newer vehicles and over the road drivers.
Traffic Sensor Rejection: (TSR)
The TSR prevents false alerts transmitted by sensors that
monitor the traffic flow on roadways around major cities.
Super Clear OLED Display:
The screen is clearly visible in all lighting conditions, so
you don’t lose focus in any way from the road.
Undetectable to Police: (detector detectors)
The Judge 2.0 radar detector and laser detector
incorporates a Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit
(MMIC), which reduces internal signals from leaking out
of the antenna by up to 1/1,000,000 (one millionth) of
previous levels which makes the unit totally undetectable
to police.

Radar/Laser Scrambling:
Police radar/LIDAR guns needs to get multiple readings
sequentially in order to display a valid speed to the
officer. When The Judge 2.0 detects a speed detection
device, it floods the signal with additional signals
making it impossible for the speed detection device to
get an accurate reading.

Installation
Best place to mount the unit:
You will get the best performance from your detector if
you mount it approximately in the center of the
windshield, as close as possible to the rear view mirror
without obstructing the unit’s view of the road either to
the front or rear. Make sure unit is level with the road.
Dash mount is not recommended. The unit’s Laser lens
must not be blocked and the Laser Lens should have a
clear view out of the back window to allow 360° Laser
detection.
Radar and laser signals pass through glass but not
through other materials and objects such as:
•Windshield wipers
•Sun shades
•Metallic tinting on the windshield
•Heated windshields
(Instaclear for Ford, Electriclear for GM.)
Mounting the Unit:
1.) Place the suction cups on the windshield bracket.
2.) Place the windshield bracket into The Judge 2.0.
Align the edge of the bracket with the slot opening on the
front of the case. Gently slide the bracket into the case
while pressing the bracket release button until it locks
into place. To release bracket, press the bracket release
button as you slide out the bracket.

deactivating the radar bands, if you do
not know the type of speed monitoring
device used by police in your area.
The Judge 2.0 features K Narrow and K wide mode. K
Wide operates at full detection strength. K Narrow is a
very useful feature, where the frequency range swept in
the K-band region is reduced and more centered around a
tuned police radar gun.
The Judge 2.0 features Ka Narrow and Ka wide mode.
Ka Wide operates at full detection strength. Ka Narrow
focuses the detector on the police radars frequencies used
in the USA, 33.8 Ghz, 34.7 Ghz, and 35.5 Ghz .
The Judge 2.0 has a built in Voltage Meter that checks
and displays vehicle battery voltage when the mode is
activated.
Tamper Fee: Tampering with, disassembly, or
modification of this product voids the warranty and a fee
of $150.00 will be charged to repair it.

Radar ScramblerSpecifications:
Frequencies: 8.0-38.2 GHz
Antenna: Dual Ridge cast waveguide
Mixer: Custom MM wave Schottky
Doppler: Pseudo Random Digital Noise
Generator
Lidar Scrambler:
Full Laser coverage using asynchronous pulse position
modulation to confuse the lidar computer.
How does it work?
The Rocky Mountain Radar scramblers are full-featured
radar and laser scramblers combining active laser and
passive radar scrambling capabilities.
The radar scrambling circuit mixes Pseudo Random
Digital Noise Generator (PRDNS) with the incoming
police radar signal and reflects it back to the radar gun.
The computer in the radar gun must receive eight
identical, consecutive readings before it will display your
speed. All the different speeds contained in the White

16
Noise confuse the computer in the radar gun so it does
not display any speed. This effect duplicates the normal
operation that the officer often observes.
Since it is normal to occasionally lose the target speed,
the officer is not suspicious. Reasonable care should be
used as flagrant violators could still be caught with an
estimated speed.
The laser scrambling circuit transmits a series of pulses
at the same wavelength used by the police laser guns
(Lidar), which are electronically timed at about 100 feet
apart. When the pulses pass through the windshield they
will lose up to 50% of their power. The power output is 6
to 10 times that needed to trigger the detector in the laser
gun. Lidar sends out laser pulses and measures how long
it takes to hit your car and come back. From the speed of
light, it can determine your range. It sends out several
more pulses and calculates your speed from the change
in distance over time. The Rocky Mountain Radar
scramblers only allow the Lidar to see up to 100 feet so it
is unable to calculate your speed.
