Found this on the Beltronics website:

Are radar detectors legal?


Yes! Radar detectors are completely legal to use in non-commercial vehicles in 49 states. Virginia and Washington DC are the only places in the United States that currently ban radar detectors. Radar detector use in commercial vehicles has been prohibited in the U.S. since 1995 and radar detectors are also illegal in most Canadian provinces. We do not track detector regulations in other countries.
They used to be illegal in Connecticut but they repealed that law. They are also illegal on military bases.

Only if you get caught with one! The Navy doesn't seem to worry to much about them, but everytime I drive onto the AFB here in Charleston, SC they ask me to remove it from my window or secure the power. I smile and say no problem.
