Review title: Great price? No, nothing more than an expensive sound effects box.
Product review: I purchased the Whistler XTR-140 because of the great price and the high Amazon ratings. I don't know who these folks are giving it five stars because the unit was worthless to me. I returned it to Amazon for a full refund.The device would only sound its alarm(s) when it picked up spurious non-law enforcement signals. The sensitivity to these spurious signals between city settings and highway was not discernible.But the big kicker was that this unit never sounded an alarm when it was obvious that the police were taking laser/radar readings. This wasn't just one municipality but the following over the course of two weeks:Richardson, TXPlano, TXMcKinney, TXVan Alstyne, TXand two DPS troopers, one along U.S. 75 in Anna, TX and another east of Van Alstyne, TX.If anything, this device proves the axiom of "you get what you pay for".
