    The Escort 8500 non X50 is the way to go. What it lacks in POP, it makes up for in Ka range and gotta love the Expert Meter display.

    Someday I am going to have a V1.7 for a backup...... Oh wait I already do I just don't have the main unit yet, I neeeeed to get a 3.826. Wait a few more months for the big guns to come out could be a 3.827 by then!
    Are you people sure that there is no ghost K band bogys?
    That was my complaint last time, the "J" thing happened only once and that was real cool when it did it. Sounded like I scored something in a video game!

    was going to get a used 8500 but that would be from ebay.

    Need a radar when the V1 is in service.
    NEVER buy detectors off of ebay like JTW does.
