    Default What is the most widely used Ka band in the U.S.?

    I feel like I should know this but I don't. Is it 33.8, 34.7, or 35.5 Ka band? Speedzones.com said the predominant frequency is 34.7 GHz but I don't exactly trust them.

    I am not sure either, but I do think that it is 34.7 and 35.5 is the second, but not sure about that.

    i know that 35.5 is used most in VA, at least it seems that way. All state police use it and so does the county I work in.

    Well I believe Texas has a contract with Stalker so I think probably all of Texas is 34.7. Can anyone else confirm this with Texas? All I see are stalker products.

    Texas DPS is 90% Stalker 34.7 and some K band. I beleieve 34.7 is the most popular followed by 35.5. then 33.8 IMO.
