Couldn't get multanova with 9500ci

[Rowan]

I have seen a whistler pro78se not even alert to the Multanova 6F running on .3mW of power in the bushes. Other times the pro78se has given 300m warning +
The valentine one was picking up the 6F hidden in the bushes, with the radar source facing away from the rd's receiver. Just shows that sometimes some radar detectors don't recognize such a low powered level of scatter. A bit surprised if 9500ci didn't even alert, but I could believe it.

dont get confused here. multanova is a product family - multanova 6f is a Ka band radar as you know. but MultaRadar is a different device (also has the multanova trademark on it) that operates on K band 24.100GHz and is much more difficult to detect than multanova 6f

Yes it is.

Was trying to use my experience as an example

aha ok i get it now

The Redflex is using the same kind of the sensor (Flat) . I think it may be the horizontaly because the V1 detect better with Vercital mount for the Redflex.

most new fotoradars now use the flat patch antenna.. i guess i need to take a closer look into this anyway if this (H pol) is the case than your stinger SA is installer correctly. what is normally your detection distance? rear and forward facing

The Redflex radar system used here is the AGD340 and you will be able to see it in this video I took from the news a while back...



I have tested out the V1 and a US model Bel STiR Plus against this system here and the V1 in a vertical mount was best at 550 metres or so when facing the radar. The STiR plus was able to detect it at around 500 metres when held vertical also.

Neither of them can detect it until you have passed the thing when the radar is facing the other way though .

See this post from last week...

Also, this is the Multanova radar systems we have in use over here..



The equipment is in view at about 1 minute into the clip.
