    Escort 9500CI Antenna on ALP CPU

    To make sure they were compatible we tested a 9500CI using the 3 major KA Radar's and tested to make sure the BS Settings are the same as the Sti-R Plus settings.

    For example we took a Stalker 34.7 unit and loaded the Sti-R Plus settings with Segments 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10 eliminating 5 (34.592 - 34.808) and sure enough the 34.7 shot did not alert. They we retested with all segments off except 5 (34.592 - 34.808) and now it alerts. We verified each of the common KA ranges and they are exactly the same as the Sti-R Plus settings.

    It turns out the 9500CI Heads supported Band Segmentation all along but we just never tested one before. If you want to use a 9500CI Antenna you can connect it to the ALP RG Module and just use the Beltronics Sti-R Plus settings.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    The MTR Version of 9500ci is also compatible with ALP.

    Isn't the 9500ci antenna $100 more?

    Curious to see tests of the 9500ci antenna vs. the STI-R plus antenna using the ALP radar module. Some people claim the wire bonded LNA on the 9500ci antenna increases sensitivity, so more curiosity than anything else on whether or not it makes a real difference.

    The 9500CI Radar Package will be priced $100 more than the Beltronics one. We have some on order but these special orders can sometimes take a few weeks.

    Priced more because they cost us more. If they cost the same the price would be the same.
