Alarmed...
Hi Guys, I am looking for a good radar detector, I have an old Bell that I'm sure is not working anymore, hardly ever gives a squeek.
Can you recomend something made in the States that would work in the UK.
I;m sure we are similar.
Appreciate any help.

I have a passport9500ix. I like it alot. No false radar and it alerts ~1.5miles out. The only thing I don't like is not knowing where the threat is coming from.
