He said it's possible my old one was so out of calibration that it was missing a lot of radar signals. It seemed to be detecting cops just fine (although maybe not all of them???)
So bottom line: my $300 upgrade was effectively to get *more* false positives. No thanks.
Regarding the laser going off even in the country, he said maybe it was my cell phone triggering it And maybe the new one is defective, but I'd have to pay to send it back to find out.
I'm probably going to return it and get the old one back, and buy an Escort Max

Yeah, I went through the same thing a few years ago and had similar results. I, too, plan to buy the Escort.
