Iam thinking of getting, how do most of you user like it so far, how is the performance on it with hilly and curvy conditions. Hows is the 35.5 ka band on it. is it even worth buying it?

I have a 690se and a 78se....The 690se still works fine but after about 2 weeks the detection on all bands has dropped off significantly. I really don't use the 690 enough to know if this will become problem also.
My 78se was getting wicked range on all bands but yesterday for no reason dropped all the way down to .2 of a mile in the same place I picked the LEO up for several days from a lot further distance...Its his favorite spot. Same issue against 2 other different guns I encounter everyday on my way to work.
Don't know What is going to happen.
Hi V1dude.
What kind of radar do leos use in your area? And where are you located? This will help us determine if these Whistlers are right for you.
I can see more posts day by day when people complain of their SE models. Are there real bugs in these models?
I'm sending both mine in for check-ups..My 78se suddenly downgraded in detection. My 690 has no problems yet but Mike B wants me to send it anyway just to be safe....I didn't notice till last night that Whistler is made in philippines.
You're lucky - you live in the same country with Mike B.
But what's about international users?
The V1 seems to be the best at catching short pulses of radar. The Whistler with POP may be able to catch Iskra as well but I heard it falses more.
Do they use Ka-band at all in Russia? Ironically, you might be able to turn that off and that use your Whistler without at least the Ka-falses
They have a permission for Ka-band radars but, I heard, our cops still don't have such devices.
Well, as I said earlier, in a ten days I'm going to the sea shore by car. I must go straight ahead federal road M4 and after my returning I will have full info about our cop's radars.
