Dog Days of summer in the Radar Detector Industry?
Historically the end of summer is slow go for fresh information in the radar detector industry. This is when the manufactures are being very hush while working on final tweaks for new products they plan on launching after the first of the year which they make announcements on at the SEMA and CES shows in Las Vegas. We have already made our travel plans on attending SEMA and look forward to networking with everyone in the industry.
Some tid bits here and there that I was able to scrounge up from some contacts:
Whistler has new firmware for their XTR-690 and Pro 78 that addresses increased sensitivity and signal locking for you early bird buyers.
There are still rumblings about Bel’s new STI remote system. Jimbonzz, one of our admis from RadarDetector.net found the application up on the FCC’s website QL4G8M3R. I expect a public announcement at SEMA, as Bel holds the spotlight as Escort does promote their products at this show. Also as I’m expecting some new stuff from Escort at the January CES show. Bel wouldn’t want to get drowned out at any Escort announcements.
Next week the Veil Guy and I join forces in our Fireball Run across the USA. We start out at Universal Studios in Orlando with the goal of safely arriving at Universal Studios in Los Angles. Joining us in this years rally we will also have the Blinder Dude and his team and Brock Yates ambulance from the original Cannonball Race that I’m sponsoring.
I’m hoping to blog our adventures here on Radar Roy as we make progress, so tune in.
