    esd7000 leaks like an SOB! It's a crapshoot however. Some individual units will leak more than others.

    I wonder if the ESD7000 is the lowest of cobras. I was thinkin some thing about 25-35 dollars. I dont want wast $50 for a damn cobra.

    I think the old Unidens were hella leaky as well.

    It is the lowest of the lowly Cobras as I recall. I think it has tuning screws in its radar horn assembly. I will have to fiddle with my ESD-7000 to see if I can get it to emit only Ka band.

    What a total embarassment for Cobra to have a thread on an RD forum like this.
