Advanced All Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Algorithm

When investing in a radar detector two of your biggest concerns is the detector’s ability to sniff out real police radar threats and its ability to filter out false alerts, here is why.

Police departments across the world are now in the process of updating their equipment to the new, low power battery operated hand held digital radar guns.

All of these types of radar guns are instant on, meaning that they do NOT transmit any radar signal until the officer has a target vehicle in sight and presses the trigger.

Because of this when you select your radar detector, an important consideration is its ability to detect instant on miles away.

Then another problem, the anti-collision sensors that are being installed in most new cars today.

These sensors operate on the same K-Band frequency that police use and because of this most radar detectors constantly false alert.

Because of this Escort continues to refine their digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm for accurate detection and filtering.

This enables the Escort Max 3 to sniff out and alert to these low power radar guns at over 8 times their capture distance, while also having the ability to block out many of those annoying false alerts.

GPS Equipped

The Escort Max 3 is GPS equipped and includes Escort’s Defender database, which enables it to:

Alert you as you approach fixed photo enforcement cameras
Alert you as you approach known speed trap locations
Filter out know false alert locations based upon the exact frequency and location
Automatically adjust the sensitivity, based upon your speed
Ability to add your own hot spot locations with the press of a button

Escort Defender Database

Your Escort Max 3 is preloaded with Escort’s Defender Database, which is the most accurate photo enforcement database for North America.

This enables your Escort Max 3 to alert you in advanced of fixed photo enforcement cameras and known speed trap locations as you approach.

And updating the data on your detector online is a snap through the Escort Tools program available for both PC’s and Apple commuters.

Your purchase includes a free, 3-month subscription for Defender database updates and is only $19.95 a year or $39.95 for three years if you decide to renew your subscription.

Escort Live Equipped

The biggest break through this decade in the speed counter measurement community is the ability for your radar detector to share historical and real time data with accuracy, with other radar detectors in the cloud.

The Escort Max 3 has an internal Bluetooth chip set, which enables it to connect to the Escort Live community through your iPhone and/or Android smartphone.

This enables your Max 3 to:

Alert you of real time police spotted alerts
Alert you of real time radar and laser speed traps in your area
Alert you of historical speed trap locations including aircraft enforcement locations

Enables you to program the advanced features of your detector through your smart phone

Motorcycle Use and Accessories

When accessorized with the proper motorcycle mount, external warning device, and weather protection the Passport Max2 becomes the best radar detector for your motorcycle.

Motorcycle Mounting Systems: RadarBusters offers a variety of motorcycle radar detector and cell phone mounts by Techmount, which will fit virtually any motorcycle.

External Warning Devices: The Max 3 does have an external earphone jack, which you can plug into your motorcycle sound system. However, we would recommend the Legal Speeding HARD system, which is a wireless heads up display.

Also, because the Max 3 has an internal Bluetooth, you can also mount your cell phone to your motorcycle and receive Escort Live alerts while riding. (Note: The Max 3’s Bluetooth will not interface with your motorcycle’s sound system nor any external Bluetooth headset, as it was not designed for this purpose. However, you will be able to get alerts through your cellphone when paired with an external device)

Weather Protection: There are several websites that sell “motorcycle radar detector boxes,” but we don’t recommend them. Instead, go to your local CVS and buy a child’s size shower cap. It’s cheaper and will protect your detector just as well.

Why Buy from Radar Busters?

Authorized Escort Dealer: RadarBusters has been an authorized dealer for Escort since 1995, so you can be assured that you detector is covered under Escort’s warranty program and pre-approved for Escort’s 24 month extended warranty program.

Real Reviews: Unlike the other radar detector review websites out there, Radar Roy is a retired cop and certified traffic radar instructor with over 40 years of experience and has his own arsenal of police radar and laser guns. Luxury Automotive was so impressed with Roy’s high standards and qualifications that they dubbed him the “General Schwarzkopf of radar detectors”.

No Sales Tax: You will not be charged sales tax as long as your order is shipped outside of Arizona.

Summary

The Max 3 is a solid investment you can make to help you avoid expensive speeding tickets, and it will enable you to become a more aware and safe driver.

When ordered through RadarBusters your Max 3 will arrive at your doorstep with everything you need along with personal 1-on-1 support from RadarBusters who is just a phone call or an email away.
