find out the most common radar bands used in Finnland, and make sure this unit can properly detect them first.

Speed cameras in Finland

Fixed Cameras: Most of the speed cameras use induction loop or piezo system. Speed and red light cameras are Robot’s Traffistar SR520 (like the S340)
Mobile Radar: Kustom / Falcon handheld radar guns (K band) and a few Stalker radar systems (Ka band - Stalker DSR, Dual and ATR.) Some police vehicles also have MultaRadar C units intalled in them, a few have Multanova 6F as well.
Mobile Laser: Pro Laser II

Click here to visit our camera guide for more information and videos.

Recommended countermeasures:

GPS Location, a radar detector and a laser jammer.

I suggest you look for postings from D.E.Tektor and follow his advice - for complete protection you need all three countermeasures listed above.

Hope this helps

Thanks for informing this guy for me

Actually most of the speeding cameras are Traffipax with induction loop/piezo - against those is http://www.activegps.fi very usuful - or other gps based solution.

The mobile radars are MAINLy Stalker Dual Ka, only few K band radars left.

Laser is very seldom used.
