    Default Re: I think I have a Solo S2 problem!

    I think this has something to do with my other radar detector. It seems to only happen when my other one is on. Right when I unplug my old radar and plug it back in about 80% of the time it will act up. Ive now noticed it does it on KA & K bands now. I reset it and im going to leave the old one unpluged and see if it does it again.

    from what i hear, you should NOT use two detectors at the same time. it will heavily decrease the performs and sometimes act up. i would unplug the other radar and see if that solves it. my friend has a solo and his batteries run out in no time, plus the performance isnt that great. i have a beltronics rx-65 and it works wonderful. shop around and be careful on what you buy. good luck.

    Just curious, but what is your other RD?

    The solo s2 got beat badly by the Cobra on 35.5 Ka. I didn't know anything could do worse then a Cobra on 35.5!

    Justin, you may or may not have...well, okay...sugarcoating aside, you did experience the side effect of running 2 RD's together. This has been known, on the forum, for ages, unfortunately you had to find out yourself. Knowing this beforehand, I would have warned you...I'm not so sure the members laughing would have though.... They're nazi's!

    BTW, I suggest running your S2 off the wire and not batteries; it has to help performance.
