Wow, I didn't know K40 was still around. Used to be pretty big in the CB biz "back in the day". I had an original K40 trunk-lip-mount antenna on my Gran Torino; I'm told that big ol' 5' whip used to stand up pretty straight while I was trying to find the top end of my speedo
They also made a pretty good little aftermarket microphone, and I'd heard they got into the radar detector market - but that was what....20 years ago? Didn't know they were still in business - hope it's not just some outfit gravy-training on the original company's name.
My last radar detector (about 11 years ago) was a Cobra Trapshooter III. Paid for itself 4 hours after I bought it, when it woke me up at 12:00 AM (and 90 MPH in a 65) by telling me the AZ Highway Patrol was a measured 2.1 miles away. At 2 miles, I thought it had faked me out; but I kept my patience, and had just barely time to make out the Crown Vic in the median when he touched off his radar again. I stayed awake for the next 44 miles to home.
Since then, I figured out that there are very few times when I need to drive like that to get somewhere (without just leaving earlier). That box is around here somewhere; now you've gotten me interested in searching for it.
