I have a radar detector that is about 2-3yrs old. When new, it was one of the best around. Now, I still think it is a very good one. I am originally from Ohio and used it on trips back and forth. However, in the past year I have gotten 2 speeding tickets while using my radar detector. The reason is that NC and recently PA highway patrol have "instant on" radar guns. That is their radar guns work like a gun. They have a trigger that turns them on and off very quickly. This gives you a fraction of a second to slow down if you are speeding. This isn't enough. So, I have stopped using my radar detector. I haven't looked into radar detectors since so I'm not sure if the technology has changed to improve radar detectors. Hope this helps. ___________________________________________________________________________ | | | Youngstown State University Penguins | | 1991 Division I-AA National Champions | ___________________________________________________________________________ | James M.
