If you're going to be driving 20 over the speed limit you need to have cars in front of you. The cop will be checking their speed and you'll get an alert in advance when he turns on the radar unit. ...

Good luck. The fact the guy is new and you've been on eBay for years is in your favor, but it's about the only thing in your favor. Ebay and Paypal have really become very slanted toward the buyer...

A little late to the party here, just didn't notice this before. Boy, the M4 RX65 looks like a relative bargain. I had one several years ago, and thought it was a good detector, but sold it after a...

Check out the owner's manual on the Beltronic's website. I think it has all the options, including the different frequencies for each band segment.

From what I've read, there are a lot of speed cameras and redlight cameras in Md. The Escort 9500IX alerts to those cameras by using a GPS database that contains the camera locations. The 9500IX is...

I read you. I wonder why it would Ka false though. Ka pollution is pretty low even from cobras, and the short duration (from the sweep) should be pretty easy to filter if you're not using POP.

Wasn't it Mem-Tek who used to say that mounting low gave about a 1db gain over a high mount due to the fact almost all car hoods are slanted and the radar waves reflected off the hood into a low...

The race edition 9500IX. Are they saying it might appeal to the brothers? Why is Escort playing the race card?

Thanks much for the quick and simple answer. Now all i need to do is find out if there is any KA radar users in my area, the city and sheriff cars all use K-Band, not sure what the Montana Highway...

On the pair thing for sources. Most auto door openers have a pair of guns, one for people coming in, on for people going out. I think Mike B said that Whistler also looks for pairs, so it's...

I don't think the 8500CI has the autolearn ability of the 9500IX, you have to manually lock out locations, at least that's what someone on the Escort forum said.

My wife's 9500ix picked up a K-band speed sign from 3.5 miles away one day, then 3.7 miles the second day, measured by the odometer. My RX65 picked it up from about 1.5 miles and my Whistler 695...

Do you mean M4?[/QUOTE]

Yep, I meant M4, went back and edited.

Have to disagree somewhat. The Bel RX65 is a good detector and is at the high end of Bel's M4 [edit, didn't mean to reference the M3] based dashboard detectors. The rebadged C65 is available under...

Didn't Mem-Tek do some tests showing a low mounted detector actually performed a little better due to the slope of the hood reflecting more of the radar signal up to the detector? Seems like it was...

The only ticket I've gotten while running a detector was in 1989, I was going 70 in a 55 zone. This was just north of Eufala Ala., which is very hilly. I had one of the original Passports and a...

For $100, the Whistler Pro 68SE would probably be your best option. For $150 the refurb Passport 8500 or a new Bel 955 are good choices.

Any thoughts on whether the Sti-R would be affected if I ran the V1 with only K-band activated, and the Sti-R with only KA band activated (segments 2,5,8 ON). Not talking about the V1 causing the...

My Whistler 695 would cause my Bel RX65 to alert on K-band. It was just a slow chirp, it didn't go crazy, but it would never stop as long as the 695 was turned on.

The Escort C65 is about the best buy out there for a moderately priced detector IMO. Do a Google search. It's the same detector as the Bel RX65 and you can usually find it for well below your $300...

You can still make a windshield mount nearly invisible from the outside. I had a non-metallic tint strip installed acoss the top of my windshield. I then hardwired my Valentine One into the power...

Check out the Escort C65. It's a rebadged Beltronics RX65, and you can find it online for under $200.

The only ticket I've gotten running a RD was in 1989 running one of the original Passports (I think at this time Escort only made the larger Escort detector and the smaller Passport).

The ticket...

Detectors are subject to a lot of vibration and pretty serious heat in a lot of cases, so the operating conditions aren't like a lot of other electronics. Normally I never buy extended warranties,...

I have my V1 mounted high behind the tint strip, next to the rearview mirror. It's pretty much invisible from the front. I sometimes lower the sun visor so the silhouette of the V1 is not visible...
