[QUOTE="HotRodZilla, post: 1102110, member: 13519"] Remember this: RADAR companies like Kustom advance their tech and then a couple years later, sell it to the detector companies. When I was in traffic, I was a huge producer, so I always had new equipment. I wrote tons of tickets to guys whose detectors never went off. I was on them, but their equipment couldn't read mine. I also used stopwatch, pacing and LASER...I have written RADAR tickets to people using Valntines, Escorts, Bels, Cobras, Passports, RADAR and LASER detecting devices, you name it. Remember, detectors are tools. Use them as such, along with your vision and common sense. Sometimes that 'gut' feeling is right on the money, so don't just blow if off. I haven't seen an X band RADAR in years...Probably 15 or more. Maybe some small town is still using one, but that's a big maybe. Most use K band and the better equipment uses Ka. My Ka RADARs were always awesome. Great range and very little falsing. [/QUOTE]
