Facts About the Safety Alert® Traffic
Warning System
FCC-approved Safety Alert® Transmitters emit microwave radar signals
to indicate the presence of a safety-related concern.Depending on the
frequency of these signals,as set on the transmitter,the outgoing
signal can indicate whether the transmitter is on a speeding
emergency vehicle or train,or at a stationary road hazard location.
These microwave signals are located in the K-band and as a result,any
radar detector which detects K-band radar will detect these Safety
signals as standard K-band radar alerts.However,unlike a standard
radar detector,your Cobra® XR-1050 is designed to differentiate
between a standard K-band alert and a Safety Alert® warning.Safety
technology is relatively new so the number of transmitters in operation
is still growing.You may not receive Safety Alert® on a daily basis and
should not be surprised to encounter some emergency vehicles,road
hazards or trains not yet equipped with these transmitters,therefore
failing to provide a signal.As Safety Transmitters become more
prevalent (the number of operating transmitters is growing every day),
these Safety Alert®s will become more common.The Safety Alert®
Transmitter is in use in all 50 states in limited quantities.
