." The Y.oJack :system is a multi -component system for assisting.,liw
enforcement personnel in the location and recovery of stolen
vehicles. The system has been in operation in the Commonwealth r
of Massachusetts since June, 1986. The average time to recover a
stolen vehicle has been ninety minutes. Because they are
recovered so quickly, LoJack vehicles have sustained little or no
damage. The system has three major components: the Loiack
Transmitter (LJT), the Police Tracking Computer (PTC), and the..;...%
Florida Activation System (PAS).
The LJT is purchased by the consumer and installed by trained
LoJack technicians. The transmitter is hidden _anywhere within
the wiring system of the vehicle. The unit contains a low -power
(2 watt) VHF radio transceiver, microprocessor -based eomputeri
and.'a set of unique identifying numbers which distinguished` it
from all other LoJack Transmitters: when a stolen.,LJT:dete. a '
properly coded :broadcast containing its unique activation .code,
it ;begins sending- its own uniquereply' code < every f if teen
seconds. When the LJT signal is detected by . police, it is sent tT i x
E an additional coded message which increases the LJT transmission*
frequency to once per second. The LJT will:"coatinue to.boadcast
its reply .code 'until it_ receives a ' properly coded message: to y1-
top. This message is. normally sent after the .police have
recovered the stolen vehicle. Should the LJT be disconnected
from its primary power source, aback -up battery, installed wa.th r
the LoJack.'tranamitter, will broadcast for about 3 days.
The PTC is installed in the vehicles of law enforcement agencies'
which have jurisdiction in the area, covered by . the syste�a, The,r
PTC consists of a radio receiver with directional antenna
doppler signal processor, microprocessor based computex
_controllable display. When the PTC detects an LJT seply4
transmission from a stolen vehicle, it displays the code along;
with graphic indications of the. di'staace t
actual direction and o�sj
the stolen vehicle. The officer radios` the reply cQ_Avi�n!

Us to deter the increase of this crime.
A Jacksonville -based automobile deal-
er is working to bring a highly success-
ful, high-tech recovery system to Flori-
da for the use of local and state law en-
forcement .agencies.
Mike Shad. owner of Mike Shad Ford,
hasbeen awarded the Lo-Jack distrib-
Worship for Florida. The recovery system
was developed and manufactured by the
Lo-Jack Corporation of Braintree, Mas-
sachusetts. Since its successful develop-
ment, Florida has become the first state
_ outside of Massachusetts to have the
rights to utilize the system.
The
recovery system, which has a 100
percent recovery rate in Massachusetts,
usually takes less than an hour to locate
the stolen vehicle.
When a car equipped with the hidden,
eraser -sized Lo-Jack is stolen, the car's
serial number is reported to the police,
The police then enter the information on
the department's computer system and
the computer alerts the police broadcast
system. The broadcast system sends a
signal that activates the silent signal from
the stolen car's Lo-Jack..
The signal is received by the tracking
units installed in police cars, which give
tracking direction and a code for the po-
fice officers to use to obtain a descrip-
lion of the stolen car.
_ Because the system is so reliable and
the recovery time is so fast, the Lo-Jack
Corporation will refund the car owner's

to track them with the Lo Jack can lead
to more arrests and, in turn, lead to cut-

added.
Before the Lo-Jack system can be im-
plemented in Florida, approval and fund-
ing must be granted by appropriate state
agencies. Moore encourages anyone in the field of law enforcement in Florida to
contact him for more documentation on
Lo-Jack. For more information see the

Rick Moore, vice president and gener-
al manager of Shad's Lo-Jack of Flori-
da, reports that the benefits of the rev-
ery system are tremendous for both the
general public and for law enforcement
officers.
"The Lo-Jack system adds to the'safe-
ty of police personnel, Moore explained.
"it reduces the need for high speed pur-
suit of stolen vehicles. An officer can just
track a Lo-Jack equipped car from a dis-
tance, rather than alerting the thief and
triggering a chase.
The Lo-Jack signal can also provide
assistance to an' officer .who must ap-
proach an unknown vehicle. The officer
can take extra precautions knowing it is
a stolen vehicle.

There was one cue where a person bought a Cadillac from
a private party. It turned out that he couldn't make the
payments, so he took out the radio and other niceties and hired
a couple of guys to trash the car. So that he could collect on
the insurance, he gave the guys a head start and then reported
the car stolen. It was entered into the computer.
About ten minutes later, a patrol officer called in a query,
found the car, and arrested the two occupants. They blurted
out the whole story, rather than take the fall for auto theft.
The original owner had installed a LoJack unit but neglected
to tell the buyer about it when he sold the car.
Sgt. Jack Doherty of the Boston Police Department is a
"master" at tracking stolen vehicles with LoJack equipment.
He recovered his 40th vehicle just a few days before our
interview. A 14-year veteran, Doherty heads the Radio/
Communications Division and was one of the first BPD
officers trained. He has since trained some 300 officers
through the Police Academy.
With some 1,000 stolen cars each week in Massachusetts,
immediate police response just wasn't possible before.
"Unless the tsar was stolen at gun point or there has been a
kidnapping, headquarters does not send out a radio transmis-
sion to officers in patrol cars," Doherty said.
Automatic Alert
Typically, when and if a stolen car is found, it could be weeks
later with considerable damage done to the car. With LoJack,
police are automatically alerted to the presence of a stolen
vehicle, usually within minutes of the report.
"The potential for a high speed chase is greatly reduced,
since the thief is unaware the car is being tracked by police,
sometimes from miles away," Doherty explained. "There is
less chance for damage to the vehicle or for injuries to other
parties. The odds of capturing the thief are greatly increased."
Doherty's fastest recovery, so far, is 13 minutes after the
report. Asked how he does it, he answers simply, "When 1
hear the slightest signal, I get a fix on the direction and go for
it. I know the streets in my area so well, it's only a matter of
time."
It could be more than simple auto theft, which is a
misdemeanor in Massachusetts. As an 81-year-old woman was
getting into her car, a man approached, stuck a gun in her
face and demanded her money and the keys to her
LoJack-equipped car. The missing car was listed as a felony
vehicle since it was wanted in an armed robbery. The culprit
was captured, the car and property recovered intact. The
robber was convicted and sentenced to two and a half years.
In another case. a LoJack signal from a stolen Pontiac led
Doherty to a garage in Dorchester. He called for back-up from
the Governor's Auto Theft Strike Force. When they entered,
they found a chop shop in full operation. One arrest was
made at the scene, another is pending; the Pontiac was
unharmed. Other stolen cars in the garage weren't in such
good condition.
Police in the Bay State are enthusiastic about the results the
LoJack .ystem. Roughly 300 MSP cruisers are equipped with
LoJack Trackers. Boston has a dozen and is ordering a dozen
more, Individual jurisdictions can equip their cruisers, at a
:u.i or about S1,500 each, to take advantage of the system
already in place.
Florida is purchasing an initial $1.3 million in equipment
and services from LoJack to implement the system in that
state. It becomes the second state to adopt the LoJack system.
'there were more than 60,000 vehicles stolen in T'lorida in
1986, most recent year for which figures are available, a 17%
increase from the year before. It ranks sixth in the nation in
auto theft.
California is likely to be number three. State Senator Ed
Davis, former LAPD Chief, has proposed legislation to fund
the Stolen Vehicle Recovery Network based on LoJack
technology.
"Car thefts are at an epidemic level," Davis said. "This
year almost a quarter million Californians will be victims of
car thefts and almost half of those will be in Los Angeles
County. Car theft is the fastest growing crime in the state."
Los Angeles will probably be the first agency equipped, but
Davis is enthusiastic about the implications statewide.
"Additional applications of this system at fixed locations,
such as toll booths and border crossings, make this a
particularly promising and exciting project for years to
come," he said. L&O
