    Default Cheap Radar for Ka 34.3

    I am looking for cheap radar that pickes up narrow Ka 34.3. I know people will say buy V1 or Bel Euro 550. First V1 is like $399 and that's too much and Euro is sold only in europe and it's $$. What about Passport 8500. Does Cobra has any model that pickes up Ka band.

    The only detectors I know of with 34.3 Ka narrow are:

    V1 in Euro Mode
    BEL Target 966r
    BEL 975R
    BEL Target Euro 550
    BEL 990
    Stinger DSI

    There might be a couple more that I forgot. But, I don't think there is a cheap way to get Ka narrow.

    Passport 8500 and Cobras have Superwide Ka. They will detect 34.3 GHz, but will have poor performance for low-powered mMultanovas facing away.

    34.3 ghz Ka band (Multanova 6f) is very hard to detect by a cheap radardetector.

    Hard to detect traps require higher sensitivity detectors, obviously sensitivity comes at a price.

    It depends on if you want to get caught speeding and pay the fines or spend the money on a good detector.

    If you buy a good detector, you have protection against speedtraps and something to show for your money.

    If you pay the ticket its pure tax, you have nothing to show for your money and you will loose more money by having higher insurance premium, and you will end up getting caught more than once!

    buy a good detector.......

    They are mobile cameras eh? If they are fixed in place GPS is a good solution.
