1. A radar detector, comprising:
- a display screen including means for defining a plurality of character positions geometrically across the display screen including at least a first row having a first plurality of character positions arranged in a linear manner,means for scaling the first row to correspond to at least one predefined microwave frequency band, wherein each of the first plurality of character positions is scaled to correspond to a contiguous segment of the predefined microwave frequency band,means for detecting a microwave signal within the at least one predefined microwave frequency band,means for identifying the contiguous segment of the predefined microwave frequency band in which the microwave signal is detected,means for storing at least a first predefined character, andmeans for driving the display screen to display the first predefined character in the character position in the first row which corresponds to the identified segment.
