Solo or Escort?

[James Vincent Scatena <scat@udayton.edu>]

I have had the chance to own both a 5000 and a Solo 4.  First off the
technology is the same.  The Solo in my opion was the better of the two
detectors for many reasons.  First the display of the 5000 was
terrible.  It told you a lot of neet stuff but fails to give you a
strength meter.  They both are about the same for detection so it
depends on what type of display you want -- one that tells you how
strong the signal is (solo) or one that looks pretty and doesn't tell
you anything (5000)
