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.
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 ...
AN/APS-118 AGM-78 Standard ARM missile control radar by IBM for Wild Weasel to replace AN/APS-107 AN/APS-119 Weather radar for HC-130B AN/APS-120 improved AN/APS-111 ultra high frequency surveillance radar by General Electric for E-2 Hawkeye
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 ...
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.
DFR7. This low-cost detector has impressive range and all the requisite features, including GPS for low-speed false-alert muting, manual marking of up to 100 known radar locations, and speed ...

The AN/TPQ-37 is an electronically steered radar, meaning the radar does not actually move while in operation. The radar scans a 90-degree sector for incoming rocket, artillery and mortar fire. Upon detecting a possible incoming round, the system verifies the contact before initiating a track sequence, continuing to search for new targets.
