    OPP now with Ka, Gravenhurst Muskoka area.

    Today while traveling from Barrie to Northbay on Hwy 11 North just before the exit to Gravenhurst OPP parked with a hand held Ka gun. picked up with my Magnum in lots of time. Made me jump because NEVER do you hear the Ka alert here, not even a false Ka alert. I could see the new gun clearly as I passed him on the side of the hwy.

    Just a heads up Ka is now here.

    Thanks for the info. My STi-R Plus should have no problem with it.

    On my car, I had to send my STi-R Plus receiver to Beltronics yesterday, as I got the infamous - "check receiver wiring" error message. Running without radar protection in one vehicle unfortunately; until I get the receiver back. Laser is all good though on both vehicles. BTW, how often do you go through Barrie?

    From the description you provided I sent 2 pix links to you for gun I.D.....if it's the one I suspect (taper), you Northern'ers are in big trouble !

    Well- when you 1st said the Radar gun had a "taper" I thought it was the MPH Model w/ 'POP' mode. However, it appears to be the Stalker II SDR or MDR I now suspect.
    You need to put your RD in "Spec" mode to get the Frequency (~34.7GHz) next time you encounter a trap.

    In spec mode the next day. Now I can't find any radar other than the liquor store. Lol

    Likewise ... I went by the area yesterday given the time of month hoping to get a shot... Nada. But Caledon Village didn't disappoint with two stops in progress. It must be a good spot with the 50k limit but you'd think people would learn
