Have a good ride. Do not know much of this route. Watch Northern Ky. with the little hills, laser sometimes is on the slope.

Thanks for the tip. I have never traveled this either, How is the enforcement in the Cincy area, I know it can be pretty heavy between dayton and there.

Ah, I've traveled 65 and 71 a lot. I periodically make trips for work from central Kentucky to Wooster Ohio.

Kentucky is cake for the most part. Northern Kentucky does occasionally use laser, from what I hear, but I haven't seen it being used for a long time. Constant on 34.7 Ka band seems to almost be used exclusively on interstates in Kentucky. I have ran into K band and the occasional 35.5, but both have been constant on.

Watch out for X band and laser in the Cincinatti area, I've seen a lot of both, along with quite a bit of K band stuff.

As far as that Tennessee area goes, I've ran into a lot of constant on Ka and have seen quite a bit of laser in northern Tennessee. 65 south going into Tennessee has a lot of good hiding spots for leos, so keep a close eye out. I've ran into a lot of them sitting on off ramps and ramps into weigh stations, which are both covered by trees when you're coming towards them. Furthermore, there are a lot of hilly medians in the area. Many times, you don't see the leos until you're right up on them. I always try to keep an eye on the cars ahead of me. If you see them hit their brakes out of nowhere, you know something is up.

Great Advice! I appreciate the info!!
