steve_dt3003's Full Review: Whistler DE-1765 Radar Detector
I didn' give this unit a high score because I got a ticket while using the detector. The cop in a little bitty town laughed when I asked him how he clocked me without it going off. He said he used a laser gun. He also had a regular radar(Ka) band, but he was not using it at the time. He offered to test the detector for me. It worked fine on Ka, but it did not go off with laser. Even at 50 feet pointing straight at it. It often goes off when I am doing country driving and there is nothing around. It never shuts off in the city, picking up every little thing. The compass is hard to keep calibrated also, it helped sell me on the unt because I do alot of driving, about 1500 to 2000 miles a month. It has caught a few speed traps but not many. It's better than nothing but I would never recomend this particular unit to anyone!
