One problem I noticed that plagues the digital is Multipath Distortion causing "robotic" and garbled reception. It seems that the local PD is having a real issue with it and on numerous occasions...
Our local PD went digital P25 and my old analog scanner was useless for digital so I bought a new digital scanner and love it. I can't believe how easy this thing is to program. So far so good and...
What is it with Whistler speakers? I had an older model that the speaker gave out and I had no idea. It work on the boot up then went dead during operation leaving me defensless. I never heard the...
I have run into those signs before. I like the ones that flash red and the words "SLOW DOWN". I guess I was going too fast. ;)
I was following a rabbit on Monday and I was running and older whistler pro 73 and it saved me. I use my Whistler Pro 78SE in my personal truck and the older model is running duty in my company...
On the PHONE?
I had a Jeep Grand Cherokee with a viscous coupler going bad. It would "crab" in tight turns after long trips and was getting worse. The viscous coupler was in the transfer case and in my situation...
I have a Pro78SE and it performs very well. I have an older Pro73 model retired into my second vehicle and it works OK but not as well as the PRO78SE.
Pff I wish can you imagine the officer walking up to my window with that monster on my dash? I mean I just found this unit a couple hours ago and after one false alert I'm just barely catching my...
It is sad when you see this all the time, but the LEO seem to look the other way and worry about speeding instead. This is the type of driving that causes so many pile ups!
That thread gets worse as it goes on. Very funny to read though. Some of them should be doing more resaerch on the subject or at least be my rabbit when I drive to Seattle.
Ihave had plenty of saves with this one. I used to have a Pro73 and it works pretty well also except the Pro78SE alerts further away. Just the other day I had an alert in town. It came up KA then...
Mine is also mounted high with the suction cups. It keeps it out of the sun and it has a good view of the road.
When Montana changed it's speed limit to "SAFE AND PRUDENT". Accidents did go down, but they found out that the do not pass zones needed to be lengthened to accommodate the higher speeds. The other...
I had one of the origianls Fuzzbusters and it worked great in it's day. Kind of a pain to use since you had to set the squelch or it woul alarm all the time of never alarm. Is was onl;y passive but...
I do not condone running from the cops, but there are people who do it.
One of the best videos right here:
YouTube - GhostRider - Police Chase 1
I would imagine it's roughly the same reason they don't let you use cell phones--concerns about interference with the aircraft's navigation systems.
(People complaining that the airlines just...
When I travel a long distnace, I enjoy it when the LEO's running radar get in behind me or in front of me. It makes the drive a little more entertaining :D
WOW!!!!
Maybe he couldn't turn off his headlights and that was the only way to do it....:)

Iam enjoying my Pro78SE. Bang for buck it is the best one out there right now. Just keep in mind that ALL RD have issues and limitations due to I/O. If you want LIDAR protection DO NOT RELY on the...
I wonder if it was point to point microwave transmission and the RD just picked it up.
BTW....I found this great site on frequency lists for microwave and it includes traffic radar.: Radio and...
I have mine mounted high on the windshield to the drivers side of the rear view mirror. They don't have laser in my state and if I was worried about laser I would get a JAMMER and never rely on the...
Looks like a good warning to me as well. Some warnings may be too late with any radar detector.
