According to you even if it saves you a few tickets the detector is worth it !

What is the logic in that statement, who can afford a $200 -$500 ticket a few times a yr. and expensive surcharges for points against their license.

Tell me more about side scanning abilities, when you can't see the speed patrol set up.

The rest of the highway KA band were short range indications of only about a 10th mile, basically you seen the cop and the radar unit displayed KA band , no time to slow down.

Once again you only pick and choose 1 fact to hold on to with your OWN statement, which shows how far your negative bias is. You won't even listen to your own words... How many times did you yourself say it worked at distances > .1 miles? Exactly.

I didn't say it was worth it? I said compare/contrast having the detector and NOT getting tickets, only spending $500, or getting only 1 ticket per 6 month period. After the 4 years which You stipulated, the detector would be cheaper, so why not get one??

What do you mean if you can't see? If you Don't look, it's on you. If the detector goes off and you Don't react, it's on you. If you go around a blind corner at excessive speed, it's on you. You can't blame the detector for a bad driver...
