Greets From Central PA

[nyclewis]

Long time radar detector owner, not necessarily good ones :-)

First one was a Cobra Trapshooter. Moved onto 2 Uniden's (2000 & 6100). Currently have a Bel Express 926 that doesn't seem to be cutting it anymore. Uniden to a Bel!

Just purchased (waiting to be shipped) a Whistler Pro-78 SE.

I have an hour commute up I-81 everyday...construction zones, 55mph "Safety Corridors" (ie double fines), trucks, college commuters, out-of-state let's drive in the passing lane drivers, etc, etc

PSP are always hiding behind a bridge or just over a hill. Looking forward to seeing Ka Max Mode & RSID in action. I'll be posting in the Whistler group how good/bad the 78 SE is at picking up any radar I-81 throws at me...

Correct. You won't find any benefits of the freq because K is only 24.150. PSP are very sneaky and almost always use I/O. I haven't seen C/O in a while. Also if they are using their handhelds I don't know how much the whistler will protect you. Welcome to the forum

Welcome to the forum. Redline or V1 would work be better for PSP

[upstatedoc]

Yeah, basically your only threat will be I/O bursts of K band in front of you, no cruisers sneaking up on you from behind w/ I/O. Redline ( although real quick bursts may be a problem) or V1.

Stationary, yes. It's required by law.

K band only, not necessarily. State troopers can only use the radar devices that law allows them, which currently consists of 21 radar guns. Almost all are K band, but a few are Ka (for instance the Stalker Dual DSR)...they aren't widely used though so aren't much of a threat.
