Re: Kustom Eagle
. Valentine One or Bel RX65 or Bel Sti all are excellent at detecting 35 GHz.Originally Posted by 97bmw328i
how does the x50 stack up with this radar?
my town uses Kustom Golden Eagle and I own the Valentine One, Bel RX65 and Escort 8500 X50 blue display, The Escort 8500 X50 will serve you well but not as good as the Bel or Valentine One. Escort 8500 X50 is also behind when it comes to K band detection. The Escort 8500 X50 probably has the best audio ramp up followed by the Valentine One. See latest test.

The Valentine One is the best at it.

well some say the x50 does poor but i have testted a x50rev5 on 35.5 with a kustom signal talon ka radar gun and the x50 does a really good job
Most of the top 4 radar detector will do the job and the 9500i does well with 35.5 using it for a couple weeks where 35.5 is mostly used in my area. Does well with 90 degree angle approach and forward facing radar.well some say the x50 does poor but i have testted a x50rev5 on 35.5 with a kustom signal talon ka radar gun and the x50 does a really good job
One thing I know about the X50, with it against the Golden Eagle, you'll show 2 threats a lot of the times when there is only 1. Not sure if the others do this though.
When you put it in spec mode, it will jump signals from 35.5 to 33.9 and vice versa and that is why you see 2 bogeys instead of one in expert mode. You even get 3 bogeys at times - 2 ka band and 1 K band.
hmm, I don't think StLouisX50 got that. I thought it was 35.5 the whole time. We didn't do a lot of tests with it or anything and it was only brought up when he asked how I had both antenas on at the same time cause he was showing 2 Ka alerts.When you put it in spec mode, it will jump signals from 35.5 to 33.9 and vice versa and that is why you see 2 bogeys instead of one in expert mode.
