    Hello from Kingston, New York

    Let's see... I am living in Kingston, NY for the last few months but am moving to California in less than a week for a month or two. Before that I was living in NYC for the last year and a half. I am originally from Alberta and hope to go back for a while sometime early next year.

    My first rd was a Passport 8500 back in about 2004. I used it for about three years and eventually sold it because I didn't use it much and wanted to get a non-windshield unit.

    Fast forward to last month when smartradar was $180. I am pretty sure that is 3x less than what I paid for the passport 8500 in 2004. Two weeks ago I also installed two ALP heads on the front of my vehicle and just ordered two for the rear this morning.

    I have yet to be hit with laser and plan to attend the Atlanta meet this weekend.

    Welcome to the most knowledgable radar detector forum. Seems that you have chosen some nice equipment. There aren't many users on the forums that have The escort Smart Radar, but it is a good performing unit. Please share with us your experiences with it.

    Hello hussein & Welcome back again.We havn't heard much from you since your install ~2 weeks ago.How is the VHB tape holding up?That is one looong trip you are about to take.I must caution you very strongly to turn your SmartRadar "OFF" when driving thru the State of Virgina.Radar Detectors are banned in that State & the Police have equipment (RDDs) that can "hear" your RD if it is turned "ON".So keep if OFF & drive the speed limit so you don't get stopped.
    Are you familiar what "JTK" means when using AntiLaser parking sensors ?
