Question on the Escort 9500I (SWS & Laser Question)

[StlouisX50]

On Roys Web Site he states:

Selectable radar and laser bands (on/off) allow you to customize which bands are being monitored (X band, K band. Ka band. Ku band, Laser, POP, SWS.

Checking the "Technical Specs" I see nothing about SWS at all

Here are the Technical Specs Below.
Operating Band
X-band 10.525 GHz ± 25 MHz
K-band 24.150 GHz ± 100 MHz
Ka-band 34.700 GHz ± 1300 MHz
Ku-band 13.400 GHz ± 25 MHz
Laser 904nm, 33 MHz Bandwidth
Radar Receiver / Detector Type
Superheterodyne, GaAs FET VCO
Scanning Frequency Discriminator
Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
Laser Detection
Quantum Limited Video Receiver
Multiple High-Performance Laser Sensors


IT says nothing about SWS.

Also is there no rear laser sensor anymore on the new detector?

SWS is mentioned on pages 22-23 of the owners manual for the RX65. By default SWS is turned off.

If you go to the 9500i's manual on the Escort site it looks like it has both SWS and a rear laser sensor.

[bauzer71487]

SWS = Part of K band. .

Thus why it doesn't have its own section in technical - because technically it is K band.

[Veil Guy]

There is indeed, SWS capability incorporated into the 9500i (ala RX-65 Pro) and it also has rear laser.
