How does the Whistler CR70 work?

The Whistler CR70 laser radar detector detects all new lasers used in North America. Features POP Mode detection which is an advanced speed detection capability that responds to brief bursts of radar. Traffic Flow Signal Rejection (TFSR) helps eliminate alerts from radar based traffic flow sensors.

What does Ka pulse mean on a Whistler radar detector?

Whistler CR90 warns that this Ka-band signal is police radar, not a false alarm. These use the same K-band frequency as police radar and can set off detectors a quarter of a mile away. Whistler has a system that indicates whether a Ka-band alert is genuine or a false alarm that can be ignored.

Is Whistler or Cobra better?

Whistler radar detectors are better in all ways you’d care to measure than a Cobra of the same price range. Even the cheapest XTR series Whistlers perform as well or better than the highest performance Cobras, and the high performance Whistlers are even better than those.

What does the letters on a radar detector mean?

X, K, and Ka band radar are simply names for different frequencies of police radar (just like different radio station names on FM radio) When your detector alerts you to one of these three radar bands, it has detected radar waves that fall within that particular band.

What is K alert on radar detector?

K band alert? Slow down, but it may be a false alert. K band radar are radar waves that fall between 18 GHz and 27 GHz, with most of the law enforcement radar guns operating at 24.125 GHz and 24.15 GHz. Police radar began detecting with K band a few decades after X band was introduced.

What does v l mean on a radar detector?

Laser Audio/Visual Alerts. When a laser signal is detected, the “V/L” will be illuminated. Pulse Protection® Pulse (instant-on) radar is more difficult to detect than conventional radar because it remains off until activated to measure the speed of a targeted vehicle.
