A: One thing radar detectors are competing against for newer cars are the safety sensors. Cars that emit collision avoidance, lane monitoring, stop monitoring and similar features can set off the K band on the radar detector. With that said, the R7 has a new firmware upgrade that incorporates a notch filter K Block Feature (24.194 – 24.205GHz) to improve detection of these safety systems. This will lessen the capability to notify you to true K band alerts, so you can enable/disable this feature, as needed.
Q: Can the police detect that you are using it?
A: Short answer, Yes. The R7 is fairly good at blocking out a wide range of RDD’s but IS detectable by SPECTRE RDD’s. When the R7 was tested by SPECTRE devices, the detections were inconsistent and had to be close in order to pick up the signal. The Escort Redline EX does block out All RDD’s.

The Uniden R7 has completely exceeded my expectations. The range on this radar detector is incredible, it picks up signals long before I even see where they’re coming from, giving me plenty of time to adjust. The directional arrows are a game-changer, letting me know exactly whether the signal is ahead, behind, or to the side. The customizable alerts and GPS lockouts make it smart and practical, cutting down on false alarms from things like automatic doors. The display is bright, clear, and easy to read even in direct sunlight, and the voice alerts are loud enough without being annoying. It also has speed camera and red-light camera alerts, which adds another layer of safety. Installation was simple, and the unit feels solid and well-built. It’s definitely on the pricier side compared to some entry-level models, but the reliability, features, and performance make it worth every penny. If you drive often, especially on highways, this is one of the best investments you can make for peace of mind and awareness on the road.
