I picked up an Escort 8500 from Best Buy. So far so good, this way I'll be warned early of all those little tows from here to Georgia.

Thanks for the input!!!

I believe that every V1 since 1992 when they first came out has the ability to have X band turned off.

My new Escort 8500 went OFF today!!! I mean to tell you, the KA signal was full blast for over 5 seconds this afternoon at 1604 east and Redland overpass, lots of traffic though. What is KA band anyway?
