Hi, May I use this Radar Detector in California ??? If the police officer see it on my car, is that ok? Or will him give me a ticket ??? Thanks

It is legal in every state except VA, but keep in mind that California has laws against attaching anything to the windshield. You'll have to stick it to your dashboard instead of using the provided suction cups.

I do road work and mainly use the radar as a training tool for my kids. They are both pitchers for baseball and softball. I had the radar gun in my truck at work and we started checking speeds of passing cars for the fun of it and I would say it easily was picking up cars at 100 yards away that were driving at us.

Unless your dashboard is receptive to the suction cup on the bottom of the device (my car has a vinyl dash)my initial response would be no. The window mount partially obstructs the front of the radar detector ( mine is a Cobra) and I found that this interferes with it's performance as it calls for a clear view of the road from the windshield. Good Luck.

I have no problems detecting police . However if they don't have their radars on it will Not detect any even if they are parked on the road side awaiting you . They do however will surprise you with turning their radar on and off at random . Hope this helps you . If not maybe your detector is not functioning correctly ?

Most likely he had radar off - it only detects radar when its on - it will definitely work, mine works just fine, even at a distance and over hills etc.

I have the mount that came with it. Second radar and I like the 2 suction cup better. As long as you mount it properly you'll be fine. I have mine mounted by my rearview mirror. Just wish I have the short cable adapter to not have a wire going from rearview mirror to power source.

No. Red light cameras do not use radar, so a radar detector would never detect them. This will detect speed cameras as they do use radar.

I would say they weren't using their radar or had it turned off. Some patrol cars don't even have radar. The unit is very sensitive and will definitely pick up a signal. Mine has saved me from 3 tickets in the few months i've had it.

Many police signals/broadcasts are now digital, so the analog scanners will do no good for that type signal. Some local PDs still might run some broadcasting on analog, bit most state police, atf, etc are digital. Google "radio reference", get to their different forums for the state you live in.I'm thinking about getting the 750 myself. Did you wind up keeping it? It seems to be good for Ham radio listening.

Its better for you to checkİt from the internet. I've just bought it because i thought its a newer model. But i dont recommend it to you though. İts giving signal to everything. If you listen to this radars signals you cant even eide a mile.

this is just a mount and it doesn't attached herself to your dashboard but it is kind of solid on the windshield. It's something you can put a radar detector on is not a radar detector.

I have the xrs 9370 and as you may see from my review it does not give ANY warning against the latest 'police' radars. I would expect the 9570 to not work either. You will always get false alarms, even with the expensive Bells etc.Hope this helps.

Don't know really. Not sure why it should have anything to do with a radar detection device. It is a communication device one uses to communicate with other skiiers/snowboarders on the slopes using a similar device.

The unit is undetectable to older VG2 radar detector detectors. It probably IS detectable to the newer Spectre Stalker Elete radar detector detectors.

Yes, no problem with detection. I mount on the visor without fear of radar from all sides. This is battery operated so carry a spare set but the detector will warn you of low power.
