Simplex & Legend differences

[Tinhorn3]

I read that Legend is a turn-on detector & Simplex is too. I'm pretty stupid I guess LOL so what is different...

Legend is multi-frequency and has a lot more adjustment settings. Legend has bluetooth.

Current Simplex is single frequency, has fewer adjustment settings, and has a proprietary wireless protocol.
