    Not true at all. There are many credible tests out there. This article ain't one of them. Like I said, the fact that you think it to be more credible than GoL, speaks volumes.
    lets see you don't believe R/R tests do you

    you have major problems with Speedzones

    Craig Peterson we can off course forget about too.

    what tests other then yours do you actually approve of ?

    I believe my assertions speak more volumes then yours

    especially since I am not alone at all in them

    You and GOl quite frankly see RD testing conspiracies EVERYWHERE.

    I mean it's in your slogan for petes sakes!

    you all need special microwave proof tin foil hats made up.

    Regardless of what the critic says, I wouldn't touch a cobra with a 10 foot pole

    That happens to me too.

    just to add to your statement

    I have tested newer more expensive Cobras with other detectors including Bells and they don't set them off.

    but Bells and other detectors will set these Cobra's off !

    spectre emissions by the l/O are a different story

    different set of emissions then traffic radar

    these Cobra's are immune to the spectre 1 though I believe.

    I am not saying that Cobra RD should be tossed out the window. I just meant that I personnaly wouldn't buy them for lack of trust. It's better to have a cobra than nothing at all

    That's probably the worst article I've ever read.

    The writer doesn't have a clue about detectors.

    The article is full of subjective opinions and concludes that the Cobra "probably" is as good as the 9500.

    The reference that the packaging only lists 13 specific bands instead of the 15 as advertised basically sums up the author's knowledge of the subject.

    And that it is being vigorously defended by the OP is hardly surprising...

    I find this review as legit and unbiased as Radar Roy's review of Veil Steath coating.

    It a personal review from someone that no doubt has used detectors before.

    this is what he saw personally when he used each model

    I dare say if his conclusions went against the Cobra significantly you would be complete agreement with them and call the article well written.

    Problem is Cobra blows when I/O is used.
    Any detector can pick up C/O at some distance.
