I'm wondering if you could use tech mode on a Bel Sti to differentiate between different models and/or manufacturers.
As well, if a unit is setup with forward and rearward facing radar, are the frequencies different so the guns will not interfere with each other?
Normally I see 24.150Ghz or so but I recently passed an oncoming cruiser and once past, I got blasted by 24.200Ghz. Not sure if the rear unit had a different frequency but I was curious.
TIA.
Only one police radar in production can transmit on two antennas at once, and that is the Stalker Dual DSR 2X, which operates on 34.7 GHz.
If you pick up 35.5, you know it's either a Kustom or Decatur gun. If you pick up 34.7 you know it's a Stalker. And if you get 33.8 it's a MPH radar. Oh, and if you get a 33.6 alert it is mostly likely a polluting Cobra.
With K band you will not know which brand radar it is. May be an Audi or Mercedes with lane assist.
There is value in knowing which Ka radar is in use. My primary RD is the V1 but I will periodically run with an STi or Redline to see what frequencies are in use from time to time. Now that 35.5 is being used more often, if I get a Ka alert on a curve, I will act on that alert immediately because there is not as much time to slow down before I get in range.
