MONITORING SPEED A radar gun transmits radio waves at certain frequencies that bounce off objects and return to the radar gun's receivers. The radar gun then calculates the speed of the object. The DFR5 recognizes the following bands/ frequencies used by radar guns: BAND X K Ka Laser FREQUENCY 10.525 GHz 24.150 GHz 33.400 - 36.000 GHz 800 nm - 1100 nm RADAR DETECTOR DETECTORS (RDDS) Radar detectors are illegal in some states. Law enforcement officers use special equipment to detect signals radiated by radar detectors. If they are in a state where radar detectors are illegal and the officer detects a vehicle using a radar detector, the operator of that vehicle could lose the radar detector and be fined. The DFR5 is designed to be invisible to signals from the Spectre l, Spectre lV, and VG-2 RDDs. CARE AND MAINTENANCE Use common sense and your DFR5 will provide trouble-free service.
