question about bel rx65
Thinking of getting this detector. Question for those that have it...
Does the detector automatically turn on every time you start the car? If so, is there a way to set it so that does NOT happen, and be able to power it on and off only when I want? The design is slightly different than the Escort 8500 in that it's a power button, rather than the dial on the 8500, so there's no way to ensure that it's in OFF mode when starting the car. I plan to hardwire it BTW.
Also, I've read that the RX65 never reaches a continuous tone when coming up to a radar source. Is that true?
Thanks!

Since you plan to hard-wire there is an awesome DIY by vp911 in the 3G garage. What he has done is he added a circuit ($10 at local autozone) in the fuse slot of the window lock button...so you can power on and off your radar from the window lock button.
hope this helps.
