I have a whistler 3 and a cobra trapshooter RD 3120, are these any good or too old and trash?

Thanks!

Im guesing those models won't pick up Ka, but I wouldn't trash them. Those could be considered collectors items by some. I believe there are a few members here that have collections of older radar detectors.

The Cobra RD-3120 was my first RD. It worked pretty well back in the late 1980's.

I had the Cobra 3310 (or was it the 3100?) x/k bank unit in the late 80's. LOVED IT! Put it hard wired and located on the left side of my visor (did not have to worry about laser back then!) It was stealth and looked clear down the road!It was, overall, a solid performer....for back then!

I bet every single member on these forums owned a cobra at one time

No wonder they selling more detectors than any other company combined..

That's funny...I've got an old Cobra Trapshooter also..It's set through many a yard sale and I still have it. Bought it back in the 80's (I think). It did save me a time or two back then. I've been considering ebay but that's about as far as it's got....considering..that is...(probably wouldn't get anything for it).
