  • LONG-RANGE 360 COVERAGE Detects X, K, Ka, and laser bands plus POP mode radar from all directions simultaneously, giving you maximum reaction time whether threats are ahead, behind, or to the side.
  • ADVANCED FALSE ALERT FILTERING (FDSR + TFSR) Field Disturbance Sensor Rejection and Traffic Flow Signal Rejection eliminate nuisance signals from automatic doors, blind spot monitors, and adaptive cruise systems every alert you hear is real.
  • TOTAL BAND PROTECTION Comprehensive detection across all major radar and laser bands used by law enforcement in the U.S., including POP mode radar, so no threat goes undetected.
  • BILINGUAL REAL VOICE ALERTS (ENGLISH/SPANISH) Clear spoken identification of detected band keeps your eyes on the road instead of on the display, in whichever language you prefer.
  • DIGITAL SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR Icon display shows exactly what band is detected and how strong the signal is, so you know precisely how much time you have to react.

Description

The CR73 features Whistler's FDSR (Field Disturbance Sensor Rejection), the most recent advancement to combat new vehicles equipped with Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) K band blind spot and collision avoidance devices that clutter nearly all of K band causing a normal radar detector to alert continuously. The CR73 is also the first radar detector of its kind to offer bilingual (English/Spanish) Real Voice Alerts.

    • Great Radar
Style: CR73
Works perfectly out of the box. Took my daily trip to work and warned immediately to a speed trap. The Volume works perfect. Great Value for the price paid. Would definably recommend.

    • The CR73 is complete junk but let me tell you why
Style: CR73
This is the crappiest radar detector I've ever owned and I've owned many. Took a chance on this Whistler because I've owned some in the past and they functioned well. This one is junk and I don't think it's about luck, it's poorly designed. Here's what happens. As an engineer, my guess, I didn't tear it apart cause I'm returning it, but from what it's doing, it has a pretty crappy primary signal processor which grabs the initial signal and declares it 'Ka-Band' for example. So you get a Ka alert (police radar). However, that signal is then sent to a secondary processor or software which further analyzes the signal and discovers it's actually the parking assist radar in a nearby car- so it then supersedes the initial Ka-band alert with what it calls an 'F' alert with its own double chirp. So, LOL, no worries, wasn't a cop. Fun huh ? No! Not when everyone and their brother has cars with those features so the darn thing is going "KA!" then 5 seconds later ... "Psyche! Just kidding." But it gets worse because at least the prime processor at least thought it saw Ka-band RADAR ... it was wrong ... but at least it initially discerned it as police radar ... thus you get the ALERT until further processing confirms it's a false alarm. However, this poorly designed piece of junk, will actually alert you with a simple 'F' alert ... FROM THE PRIMARY PROCESSOR ... !! Why ??? Why do you alert me to something you already know is not police radar? My guess is it's one of those things where the design requirements were lost in translation to the build team in China whose engineers don't own cars themselves. Lastly, this is weird but it might be emitting a Ka-band signal ... its own radar signal on the Ka spectrum. This would be illegal because by transmitting on the same freq as cop RADAR it would in effect function as a RADAR jammer. I'll leave it to someone else to verify but when my CR73 came on in my driveway, two neighbor's RADAR detectors alerted Ka-band. Not sure what detectors they using other than simply commercial stuff so can't comment on the quality of their discreet signal processing. A RADAR Detector should remain silent until it detects an actual police RADAR. Period. End of story. I've now purchased a Cobra RAD 380 which was only $20 more and it's night and day different. Silence ! When it goes off, pay attention, popo is nigh ! ... show more

    • So many false alerts.
Style: CR73
I had a Uniden DFR1 since like 2014. It finally died so I got this Whistler CR73. What trash it is. So many false alerts, and I drive in rural areas. Especially with the laser. You can't mute every band except the laser band, which goes off constantly and is the most obnoxious of all the noises. If I were a cop designing radar detectors to troll citizens, this is the radar detector I would make. ... show more
