I picked up a DE-1765 in a pawn shop in 2004 for about $40. I was intrigued by the shape and the compass feature.

Radar detection is passable, similar to other Whistlers of 2002-3 vintage. I have used it almost exclusively in the city, preferring to use my Valentine or other detectors... Read full review »

Pros awesome compass feature
Cons none so far
Recommended it? Yes

Well, I had been using an older uniden unit. Got tired of the occassional false calls all night long, so stopped at Walmart and found this. Figured that it would be worth it even if only the compass worked.. I installed it and in an hour of traveling south on 85, never hearing even a single beep, i... Read full review »
