yea, cant get any better. whistler/michael B defenately know how to take car of customers.

both have been performing well, and i have no complaints thus far. very pleased.

just want to follow this up with a HUGE thanks to Michael B!

not only did he fix my 690SE, he fixed my old pro73 for me as well.

now i have 2 nice detectors, and it was all done fast!

great...

DEFINITELY top notch customer service from whistler. I have been very happy with their products and always recommended them to others. I was curious if this was something that had ever happened to...

how much? i may need a new RD. hanvt seen any at my local wally world. not showing up online either.

It did this before the repair, however it was something that had at that point only happened briefly and only a few random times. No where near as severe as it is now. the screen has never gone...

well, not sure what to make of this, just got it back from whistler, and its gone off the deep end.

screen doesnt work at all now, but before it lost its marbles, i spent about 20 minutes of my...

yea, i know how that is. I feel naked when i dont have mine. such a wierd feeling to be dependant on a device like that.

is this a certain issue? or something random my unit decided to do?

mike, i replied to your pm. thank you.

new 690SE freaks out and says "powr off" IIRC it was or something to that effect randomly.

ive tried different cords, different cars, etc. itll just go completely ape**** and tell me on the...

same here, happened several times to me. i turn it off and back on again, and its usually fine after that.

XTR 690 SE here.

yep, had it in my cart last night to buy today, and saw that.

well, so much for that. :mad:

awesome, thank you.

looking forward to the upgrade to a 690SE

What kind of cord does it use?

i have 3 of my cars hardwired with cords for my current pro73 model, and was hoping i wouldnt have to change that.

will i?

nevermind, i have a pro 73, not 78. :?

ok, first off i will say whistlers cust svc is awesome. very short hold time, almost none, and great service in answring questions.

what was explained to me when i asked about this is that many...

its just crazy cux the only thing it ever seems to go off to is Ka. it may be that being in nevada that is common, and it is consistent in where it goes off.

it almost makes me think its...

ok, i got a pro 73, and either this thing has AWESOME detection, or its acting wierd.

i get what i take it are falses in the same ares of town, driven there on several different days.

what is...

yea, i had it narrowed down to the 895, the pro 73, and their similarly priced counterparts.

i like whistlers pop protection, and the ability to shut off x band, dont like the blue display.

i...

i decided on a pro 73.

it was only about 15 more than a 58, and i am leery of bel's reliability and falsing. and the fact that they do not warranty ebay sales.

so the only thing im not too...

i like whistlers ability to eliminate x band. as it isnt used here or in any areas i drive/travel to. so that is nice.

ill check those out though. i liked my 916 a lot. i was always a bel fan,...

i had read that also.

and the other bel models and their (belscorts) reliability has me a bit worried.

humm, maybe whistler it is again for me. :wink:

the pro 58 and 73 are the same except the display correct?

il check out the bel models. what about a rx55? i may be able to swing one of those, ive come across a few chep prices, mostly ebay...

ok, im in the market soon for a new detector, im selling my whistler wireless remote mount.

so far im thinking of the whistler pro models, the 73 and 58. i like the 73 and the display, except...

i like it. havnt had any near death experiences as of yet, but it seems to work well. i have the antenna mounted on the dash, as my bodykit is metal, so i cant remote mount it as intended.

with...

i thought about keeping the antennas in the car, like mounted high behind my rearview, and in the back window.

almost defeats the perpouse of a "remote" unit, but i like the high mount. and i...
