bel 975 R / rx65

[pat99999]

any big difference between bel 975-R and RX-65 ??

i mean performance...

[LiQuiDz]

the RX65 is an awesome detector, I never tryed the 975-R and I am unable to find any info on the 975-R performance

the 975-R was not tested @ SML 2004/2005 :?

The RX65 is Better, here are the tests:http://www.radarbusters.com/support/...ctor-intro.asp, http://www.radarbusters.com/support/product-tests/2.asp, http://www.radarbusters.com/support/product-tests/3.asp, http://www.radarbusters.com/support/...op-testing.asp, http://www.radarbusters.com/support/product-tests/5.asp.

oh I forgot about that part on the site, Great find SpeedFreak

RX-65 overall on all band 4.X
while the 975R dosn't go more then 3.0

You can find anything on Roys website!! :wink:
For the RD side, the 975 doesnt filter as well as the RX65 and the laser sensors are designed to be mounted on the windshield.

The 975 is better suited to photo radar since the Ka band is devided into 4 segments selectable on/off.

I really don't know why they don incorporate this function into the X50 or RX65. It would only be a software change anyway, selecting what part of the KA band to sweep. IN fact the RX65 already does this with it's "Accusweep" function.

I wonder why they don't include selectable frequencies, like the Bel 990i again?

Well, a problem exists, which is that even with the selectable frequencies the windshield models don´t have the same photo radar performance as the remote models. Not sure why, but that is the case. Try putting a V1 inside the grill and driving around photo radars with it. Madness, I tell you.

Indeed, it greatly depends on the material the windshield is made of. Some of the new ones have all this "UV blocking" and other stuff that people have found to negatively affect the detector.

It seems cheapo windshields block the least! hehe is this a case of "cheaper is better"? hehe

I think that it's because some photo radar is angled toward the ground, logically a lower mounting position would be beneficial in that case.
