arent V1s notorious for being weak with 35.5? it seems to be good

[rrdtogo]

@mujjuman When compared to the top dog detectors (Redline, 9500ci, etc.), the V1 is behind. However, the V1 still provides ticket saving performance against Ka 35.5.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is I/O?

[rrdtogo]

@SudiArabia I/O is when a LEO intentionally turns his radar unit on then off (standby mode) every time he wants to get the speed of a vehicle. This makes it harder for radar detectors because the detector won't detect a signal while the LEO's radar unit is in Standby mode. So a radar detector user won't receive an alert until the officer targets a vehicle in front of the detector user or the detector user's vehicle.

Was the leo shooting forward or rear facing radar?

[rrdtogo]

Forward

[mujjuman]

@rrdtogo Ah I see, makes sense. People on the forum make it seem that the V1 is totally blind when it comes to 35.5

[Olivpinc]

This guy was really trying to give someone a ticket, I/O a whole lot.

[rrdtogo]

The V1 ghosted.

Did you V1 ghost at about 1:30 or is that another bogey?
