The Spectre III Radar Detector Detector, produced in Australia. The same version in Australia is called Stalcar. Both Spectre III and Stalcar VG4 sweep the 11GHz and 15GHz intermediate frequencies of radar detectors.
This is the new VG4 radar detector detector, which replaces the old VG2. The VG4 radar detector detector sweeps the 11GHz and 15GHz intermediate frequencies of radar detectors.
This radar detector, the Escort 8500 X50, is very good at hiding itself from Spectre I, II and II, VG2, VG4 and Stalcar. But the Escort 8500 X50 is not 100% invisible to radar detector detectors.
The Valentine One is also very good at hiding itself from radar detector detectors, but as with the Escort Radar Detector above, it is not 100% invisible to RDD.
The Bel STi Driver radar detector is 100% invisible to radar detector detectors. If you live in the state of Virginia or in Washington DC, or if you are a truck driver; or if you live in Canada, France, Italy, England, Germany, Japan, Malaysia, Korea, Singapore, Australia; then this is the radar detector for you.
A radar detector detector is a small radar detection device; however, it is desiged to detect your radar detector, not a radar gun. Why do the police want to know who is using a radar detector? If you live in the state of Virginia or in Washington DC, the police can write you a ticket for having a radar detector, and potentially confiscate or destroy your radar detector. Canada, most of Europe, and many countries in Asia also ban the use of radar detectors. In those countries, the police use radar detector detectors to levy hefty fines against drivers using radar detectors. The Bel STi Driver Radar Detector is totally invisible to all radar detector detectors. The Bel STi Driver is a great radar detector if you want to know where the speed traps are and block their capability of knowing if you have a radar detector in your vehicle.
A Radar Detector is designed to detect the radio frequency (RF) energy of a radar gun. Radar guns operate on X, K, Ka radar frequencies. X = 10.525GHz (gigahertz). Ku = 13.45GHz. K = 24.15GHz or 24.125GHz. Wide band Ka = 33.8GHz, 34.7GHz, and 35.5GHz. Narrow band Ka is 33.3GHz, used in Europe. Thus, radar detectors scan for these frequencies to detect police radar.
A radar detector detector is designed to search for intermediate frequecy (IF) emitted from most car radar detectors. This IF produces radio frequency energy, and it can be detected. The IF used to be about 11GHz on all car radar detectors, but when the first radar detector detector came out, most radar detector companies moved their intermediate frequency to 15GHz. Then the radar detector detector companies started scanning at 11GHz and 15GHz.
The radar detector detectors used today are the VG2, VG4, Spectre I, Spectre II, Spectre III and Stalcar (in Australia only). Each of these devices can detect one or both IF frequencies: VG2: 11GHz VG4: 11 and 15GHz Spectre I: 11GHz Spectre II: 11 and 15GHz Spectre III: 11 and 15GHz Stalcar: 11 and 15GHz However, all is not lost.
Beltronics discovered a way to completely hide the IF from all radar detector detectors. The Beltronics STi Driver Radar Detector can not be detected radar detector detectors. A police car with a radar detector detectors could drive right by your car with the STi Driver, and as long as they can not see the STi, they can not detect it.
If you live in the state of Virginia or in Washington DC in the USA; or if you are a commecial driver; or if you live in Canada, France, Italy, England, Germany, Japan, Malaysia, Korea, Singapore, Australia; then this is the radar detector you need. A policeman has eyes and they tend to look into the vehicles they drive by, so don't install your Bel STi Driver in plain site. Call us for tips: 303-678-9101 in the USA.
