Jon brings up a good point about detecting a radar in back of you. as far as I
know the only detector which provides true 360 protection is the Valentine One.
It's the only detector out there with a front and rear antenna.
Also I'd research the detector and find a test to verify how undetectable it
really is I think C&D did a test and found some of the "undetectable " detectors
were quite detectable. (say that 3 time as fast as you can!)
