Question: Does this avoid the lane change and proximity detectors from the new model cars?  My old one is picking them up and it's annoying!!!
Document: I had an old Whistler 1744 that had worn out. This appears to be a revamped unitwith new lights and voice, but the same flaws as the old one. It does NOT weed outthe many false signals inherent in a town setting, the compass works around 25%of the time (which is the same odds as just picking a direction you think that youmay be going), and the overall lack of improvement over the technology of 12 yearsago in the older model is disappointing.
There are several advanced settings typically only found in the more expensive detectors, and in fact some not found anywhere else, nice things such as choosing from several sets of alert tones, or disabling annoying bands of laser.
I researched detectors for two years found the cr90 kept popping up in reviews as less expensive, but top quality. $$$ won out and it has already paid for itself as I see police waaaaaay before they see me. I didn't buy it to break speed limits, but to worn me when city driving posted speeds change suddenly and I'm distracted by smooth pavement or traffic.
Got reassigned from nc to Alaska and had to drive one of my two cars myself to get there, it was brutal but here is how it worked.my configs: all bands on KA set to maxid, tfsr on, no pop.
In my part of the country, X is used by commercial door openers at gas stations, etc and my last detector would drive me nuts because I had so many false alerts. Then the audi and other cars started using X band for adaptive cruise. I wanted a new detector that I could simply turn off X and K bands (totally worthless alerts, all I want is Ka and Laser). Done deal with the Cr90. Easy to turn off bands you don't care about.
I bought this item opened box, and therefore it came with no instructions.I called Whistler and told me to just download it.The print is too small to read w/o a magnifying glass. Luckily I had kept the instructions from my old one, and it worked out fine.I wouldn't buy the cord that lets you dim it or shut it down, and you will soon learn how to go from city mode to highway.
This radar detector is so much better than our last Whistler. The last one was prone to false signals. So much so that it was worse than worthless as I got to ignoring it much of the time. Despite that experience, I decided to give this one a shot based on reviews saying that the false signal issue was resolved with this model.It definitely is. Now I get an alert and I know it's valid. The range on this is great.
Purchased this unit in March 2014, driven about 3k miles with the unit. Power cord very flimsy, always comes out of the receptacle. Bigger problem is all the false positives, cr90 goes off for no reason at all. On one 45 minute drive down Florida's turnpike it alerted non-stop for 43 minutes (different bands), with no one else around. Tested next to my old Passport, cr90 is 5 times more likely to go off for no reason at all.
Right out of the box the supplied power cord blew 4 fuses. I contacted Whistler and they sent me a new power cord. I received a power cord replacement, however they sent me the wrong one (forgot to send me the one with the USB plug). The good news is that the detector works now. So far I am enjoying the features, for $200 you can't ask for more out of a unit with built-in GPS. Great bang for the buck.
I'd estimate that the trap was over 60 driving seconds from first alarm until I passed him; pretty darned easy to then remember to check my vehicle's speed (yeah I had to slow down).No one in my current area uses radar detectors much, except me.
Answer: Yes, this unit does respond to proximity detectors in its default settings. BUT... you can go into the setup menu and disable this feature. (I did.) The reference manual tells you how to do this.
