    Default Beltronics 966...my old friend

    Hi all,

    i just got a new job that requires me to travel more than i used to. i will be traveling as far south as VA (i know RD's are illegal there) and as far north as MA.

    i dug up my old Bel 966, powered it on and still works. i opened it up a few hours ago to resodier the power connector...it was loose.

    i have not yet mounted the RD in my truck...i lost the mount for it.

    anyways...should i trust it? i havent used it in over 15 years. I do remember when i bought it it was one of the best on the market. it has X K Ka.

    I cant think of any additional info......thanks

    It's time to get a new friend! Your friend was weak 18 years ago.

    ok...after doing some testing....my 966 freezes randomly anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes being on. have no clue as to why...doesnt matter

    after many hours of research.....i ended up buying a RX65 thru radarbusters. with a 10% discount, free 2-day shipping (needed it for a trip to Philly this weekend) and they accept paypal.

    gonna put my old friend back in its box so it can live out its retirement in peace
