Yep, my dad has one.
EDIT: I'm not 100% sure that it comes with a cord. On the Escort website it says SmartCord (optional). I am 100% sure that there is an RJ-11 input on the right side of the RD under a little piece of rubber that can be used if there are no batteries in it. My dad has a SmartCord that he can use with it.

Yep... the problem is that you own it.
Re: I think I have a Solo S2 problem!
The one i have is like a cobra 9700 or something. I didnt know you could run em together considering I saw a test with a whole bunch of them mounted together & I have heard of people comparing. I was just doing it so I could see which one is better. I have only come into contact with one cop and this picked it up plenty far enough.

Also, you can just hard wire it with a telephone cord which I will do eventually. Or hell maybe ill sell it and buy a 8500!
Re: I think I have a Solo S2 problem!
So did GOL test the Solo S2 with batteries or the power cord?

I would assume with batteries since it's advertised as a cordless detector. I would be interested to see if it performs any better running corded.

It does not. The cord does nothing to performance of the Solo S2.

I just was thinking that from what I read on the V1 site.

Or so you think. Neither of those RDs detect 35.5Ka at all, so if you ran across that radar band, you'd probably never know. Adding the interference of them running together and you'd have basically no shot at detecting 35.5.
