1. INTRODUCTION
The Kustom Signals Raptor RP-1 directional radar system
comes from a long-standing commitment to the law
enforcement community to provide quality, state-of-the-art
speed measuring equipment. The Raptor RP-1 offers a
wide range of features on this moving/stationary K or Ka-
Band radar system, yet allows easy operation and simple
one-button mode changes.
Raptor RP-1 units have the newest directional features;
D ual C hannel M icrowave antennas and Directional D igital
S ignal P rocessing (DSP). This allows Kustom Signals to
add features such as same direction with automatic add or
subtract difference speed, fastest vehicle detection in all
modes, TruTrak with A utomatic M ode S witching (AMS),
S mart P atrol S earch (SPS) and stationary modes that allow
the operator to select approaching only, receding only, or
all targets identification. With these features, the officer
can better identify the offending vehicle and eliminate
much of the confusion of high traffic environments.
All these features and performance standards are packed
into this small, lightweight unit, providing the most
flexibility for the operator.
The Raptor RP-1 K-Band antenna sets a new standard for
low power / low current operation. This will be
appreciated as low draw on the already heavily taxed patrol
vehicle’s power source. The higher powered Ka-Band
antenna offers higher detection range.
