Terrain = Very Hilly/Curvy/Winding Roads
Vegetation = Very Thick in Spring/Summer & Obviously not so much in Late Fall/Winter.
I do absolutely no interstate driving and stick to country Route's and rural roads, so single lane only.
I come in contact with Sheriff's and very very rarely State Troopers and City Cops.
I currently own an old Bel Vector V960, which is about 6+ years old which is why I thought I might need a new detector. Around this area Instant On seems to be the way of the world and of all the radar encountered: Ka = 75%, K = 25%, X = 0%, Laser = 0%.
I was just really intrigued by the Pro 3450 for it's remote install but if it isn't as good as my current old school Bel 960, I guess there would be no point.
If my 960 is better and given my terrain, price range ($450), the fact that most LEO's use Ka as well as Instant-On, I do no interstate driving, what would be the best possible unit for me?
As a side note/question since I'm new; what is with the recent excessive single bar Ka alerts? What do you mean by this?
I'm just looking for the best possible radar detector for my needs, disregard what I think if you have better input, I was just stuck on the Pro 3450 for some reason, don't really know why other than it's low price/remote install. That's not really an issue though.
