Whether you commute to work or school on the freeway, drive for a living, or just like to go on an occasional recreational trip, the Whistler XTR-520 Radar/Laser Detector is an invaluable addition to your motor vehicle. Designed with remote control capability, the XTR-520 gives you 360-degree protection from a full range of detection signals, including X, K, Ka, and safety band radar, as well as laser and VG-2 detector detection. In addition, the XTR-520 is specially equipped to detect the rapid bursts of POP mode radar, which last less that 1/15 of a second and are undetectable by non-POP-equipped detectors.
Lightweight and compact, the XTR-520 can fit right by your windshield, giving you easy visual access to the blue-background LCD text display. But for your added convenience, the XTR-520 also comes with a Real Voice Alert that can be turned off to avoid disturbing your sleeping passengers. And to limit false alerts, the XTR-520 gives you a choice of three different detection modes, letting you avoid the annoyance of repeated automatic door opener and burglar alarm warnings when you're driving in the city, but letting you know if signal strength becomes strong.
So with the Whistler XTR-520 Radar/Laser Detector in your car or truck, you'll be prepared for just about anything when you're behind the wheel.
Note: Radar detectors can be used without restriction in well over 40 states, but restrictions apply in a few states. Please check with your state department of motor vehicles or highway patrol if you have questions about whether there are restrictions in your area.

- For the price..can't beat it!
- Great little detector! for the price you can't beat it. I owned the whistler 220 before the 520. I haven't gotten a ticket since I've owned both of them. More reviews
- Whistling down the road
- A great radar detector. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the controls are a little difficult to understand. More reviews

- Whistler XTR-520 Radar/Laser Detector with LCD and Remote
Great little unit. With the diffferent settings(city), I get no false alarms. Range of detection has been fantastic. Has detected all bands being used on highway and city. More reviews
- Good, inexpensive, radar detector
- I ordered two of these detectors, one for a friend and one for myself. one failed instantly and Amazon replaced it asap, both my detector and my friends have worked perfectly since. they are small, discreet and more importantly work very well with a minimum of false alerts.
I highly recommend this detector for someone on a budget. More reviews
