However the IF used within it (being a superheterodyne receiver) ends up
straying from the unit and rendering it detectable.

Subject: Re: [ot]: how does a radar detector work?

No.  A radar detector is just a receiver.  The radar emits a pulse which
bounces off the target and back to the radar receiver.  A radar detector
receives the signal at the target, before the bounce.
