    Default MPH Industies Python?

    Saw the MPH 55 Industries unit on the dash while talking to a local LEO. Asked him what model it was and he called a Python. Is that correct? I believe the only band I get hit with here in town is K.

    Thanks for the link. He called it a Python but the antenna was marked 55. Maybe it was actually a 55 unit. I'll take a better look next time.

    If you're talking about a K-55, as far as I know these are usually marked "MPH" on the antennas, at least the ones I've seen...

    Will the Python work with the K55 antenna? I know some older Kustom Radar units will work with other antennas?

    The cops around my area with K band radars are all MPH and the two local cities i live around both use the Python 3 Series

    That could be true, but i've never sen a K-55 say MPH 55 on it - between the X or K band versions. AFAIK they all only said MPH on them. I did some googling and I can't find pictures of any Radar Antenna that says MPH 55 on it.

    Theoretically you could use the same antenna from a K55 on a Python, as they have the same pinouts. Dunno why someone would go to the trouble of buying a new radar just to use an old antenna on it, unless the department is short of money and just cobbled something together from parts.

    This is what my K-55 antenna looks like:
