"AU/NZ Tuned" Radar Detectors - Real or Marketing hype

[winterbrew]

That image posted by "Winterbrew" is of the Escort REDLINE "International Model".
Here is the link to the USA Escort REDLINE model "Owner's Manual".

Note Page 13: Overview Of Preferences, RADAR: X, K, Ka, POP.
No K "segmentation" or Ka "segmentation.
No "MTRCD", No "MTRCT", No "STRK".

Unless the Escort REDLINE (corporate webpage) is not up-to-date, it is clear that the "International" REDLINE sold in Au-NZ is different (and superior) to the USA Escort REDLINE.

Over to you 'winterbrew"; what have you been drinking?

Yes, prior to the 2015 Intl Pro-A Redline that I have, all AU/NZ Pro-A's had exactly the same features as the USA mode, just a 'Pro-A' sticker on the RD and box, some of the settings such as X band and POP already turned off and a hefty price tag

Mine's got a build date of around April 2015, and was in the first batch that arrived here. Therefore, probably anything sold here as a Pro-A before that, is just a re-badges US unit

Also it wouldn't be the first time passing off a Bel STi Driver as a tuned for AU/NZ Bel Sti XR (not all the pics work in the first link anymore) ;
