My opinion of the TECH display is that I believe it to possible be unreliable, as the case with the "hopping" frequencies. I had a confirmed trooper at 33.491 and 33.693 which jumped to 33.712 and back to 33.693, these were constant Ka, and strong, the signal did not cut out. I did not realize the numbers were way out of calibration from the supposed 33.8 untill after the fact, I am beging to believe that either maybe some DSR 2X are actually using this Ka wide in my area or the TECH display is showing mis information while the RD is actually picking up a signal that is say 33.8. If my Bel was not in full Ka wide mode I do not know if I would have had a warning in USA/Accusweep. Hopefully a trip at the end of January will aid in verifying what my troopers are using, I am going to get to the bottom of this, maybe pissing off my girl as I stop on the side of the road to figure things out but it is in the name of research and dam it, I want to have confidence running USA/Accusweep mode.
