    Default Hello from Texas.

    Hi, I've been lurking here since I was about to turn 17, and now I'm on my way to being 19. I'm a radar detector fanatic and own a lot of counter measures, among them being:

    Whistler Pro-68
    Whistler XTR-690
    Whistler Pro-78SE
    Vector 995
    Non-x50 8500

    Blinder M45

    Uniden PC68ELITE with Firestik Antenna
    Uniden BCT15X Scanner (2 day old toy, yay!)

    All of this is on a 2003 Silverado Single Cab

    I joined here mainly because I have some questions to ask and I think I'm finally knowledgeable enough to answer a few questions too, but the learning experience never ends, does it?

    I live in Abilene, TX, but my work calls for some travel to Austin and Dallas, hence the Blinder. In honest opinion, is it worth it to upgrade from the M45 to M47?

    Thank you very much, my fiance at first thought I was crazy when I would get a Ka blip and I would automatically switch the odometer to trip and count the miles or tenths of miles of detection. That is, until I was doing 95 on I-20 and got a 3.2 mile Ka I/O from a DPS. Ever since then, she digs it when I talk about countermeasures.

    Hehe, nice.


    Sorry about the ticket though, I/O sucks. I would sell some of the RD's a get a V1 imo.

    Never said anything about a ticket, I said I got a 3.2 mile DETECTION. I slowed down way before the DPS "tagged" me. Granted, it was in a very flat part of I-20, if not the Pro78SE would probably not have helped much. He was also tagging every single car it seems. LOL, kinda pointless.
