1. A detector device for alerting an operator to the presence of a speed detection or traffic surveillance system, the detector device comprising:
- a housing comprising;
detection circuitry responsive to microwave energy, wherein detection of a predetermined microwave frequency causes a detection event that is unique to the detected microwave frequency;
a display device responsive to the detection circuitry output; and
an alerting device responsive to the detection circuitry output,an operator selection device for allowing the operator to configure the display device such that at least a portion of the display device changes to an operator-selected color in response to the detection event, wherein the selected color is different than the display device color that is visible when no event is detected.
