A radar detector is a device installed in a car and detecting radar exposure to a police radar( speed detector).It is necessary to distinguish radar detectors and antiradars. The first device is passive, becauseonly detects radar signals, warning the driver. Anti-radar is an active device that is designed to generate powerful interference to radars or to modulate a false response signal.

In this article we will talk about radar detectors.

There are 4 main ranges with which radar detectors work:

* X-10500 - 10550 MHz, its support is currently useless because of the lack of corresponding photo-fixation complexes on the roads;

* K - 24050 - 24250 MHz, the most common range, is used in domestic and foreign radars;

* Ka - 34300 - 34940 MHz, a promising and evolving range, characterized by a minimum amount of interference and, accordingly, the ability to determine the speed of a moving object most accurately;

* Laser - the use of instruments with laser speed detection is limited by weather conditions and high cost of the complexes.

Radars can work in several modes, if earlier due to the development of technologies only the constant activity of the systems was available, now to reduce the visibility, short-pulse regimes are increasingly being used. On their support, the presence of Ultra-K, Ultra-Ka, Ultra-X, POP, F-POP, Instant-On devices on the label devices.

When buying a radar detector into the car, we recommend you pay attention to:

* Readability of symbols on the screen and the case, the arrangement of the buttons, the ease of setting-in case of dense traffic, there will be no time to peer at the display;

* Compact, multiple mounting methods, long power cable - the device should not close the view, cling to the controls of the car;

* The ability to determine K, Ka, laser signals( 360º) and radiation from Strelka complexes - this kit will allow you to be aware of the absolute majority of ambushes on Russian roads;

* Built-in or remote GPS-module - used to detect the masked radar, as well as systems with weak or missing radiation;

* Sound notification - will help out in an unfamiliar terrain, when all attention is riveted to the road.

Next - the top 10 best radar detectors at the beginning of 2017.The rating is made according to technical characteristics, price-performance ratio and reviews in the Yandex-Market.

10 place.

In addition, there is a built-in database that works in conjunction with a GPS receiver and is updated at regular intervals once a week. Protected against interference. There are 4 modes of operation: two urban, route, and automatic. Mode "city 2" cuts off unnecessary sources, continuing to work with the "Strelka" radar and laser fotofixers. The case is decorated in a classic style, fastened to the panel or windshield with Velcro or suction cup respectively.

* The main functions are set by the remote control;

* Quick start;

* Shows the average speed;

* Updating of bases from a flash card;

* Quality assembly.
