The Whistler Group was an electronics company based in Bentonville, Arkansas, [1] best known for its radar detectors. Whistler also manufactured power inverters, GPS navigation devices, inspection cameras, LED flashlights, vehicle dashboard cameras, and scanner radios. [2] The company went out of business in 2024 without warning.
Metox was the German answer to the British radar. Metox sets received the transmitted pulses from the ASV and rendered them as audible beeps. It enjoyed the usual advantage of radar detectors over radar in that the signal is direct and only had to travel one way whereas the radar has to detect the very weak reflection from the submarine.

Most of today's radar detectors detect signals across a variety of wavelength bands: usually X, K, and K a. In Europe the K u band is common as well. The past success of radar detectors was based on the fact that radio-wave beams can not be narrow-enough, so the detector usually senses stray and scattered radiation, giving the driver time to ...
RAD 480i. For those looking for low-cost but suitable protection from police radar, the Cobra RAD 480i provides the basics, including detection of all radar bands and laser signals.
The solid state radar netting system replaced the vacuum tube AN/FSG-1 at 3 United States Missile Master bunkers (Fort Lawton Air Force Station, Washington; [2] Fort Heath, Massachusetts; [3] and Lockport Air Force Station, New York) [4] and BIRDIEs were deployed at over 25 US locations including Homestead-Miami, Florida; Providence, Rhode ...
Radar warning receiver (RWR) systems detect the radio emissions of radar systems. Their primary purpose is to issue a warning when a radar signal that might be a threat is detected, like a fighter aircraft's fire control radar. The warning can then be used, manually or automatically, to evade the detected threat.
An Israeli Shilem counter-battery radar Functional principle of counter-battery radar. A counter-battery radar or weapon tracking radar is a radar system that detects artillery projectiles fired by one or more guns, howitzers, mortars or rocket launchers and, from their trajectories, locates the position on the ground of the weapon that fired it.
