    Default Sti-R Plus Ka Band Segmentation

    In anticipation of the install next weekend, just wondering what Ka bands should be on / off for Ontario and the US. We drive through NY, PA, VA, WVA, NC and SC quite often. Day to day driving is most of southwest Ontario; all of the Greater Toronto area. Any Ontario members here that could chime in??

    Great question. I was just going to drive in the default mode until I figure out whats used around here in NJ. But any advice is appreciated.

    What Ka frequencies are allocated for use in your Province?

    Didn't want to make own thread for this. Can someone explain to me the benefits of placing the antenna outside the car as opposed to inside the car? Is it just for stealth purposes or are there other reasons to put it outside. The reason being is that I'm not very mechanically inclined, and although it may be easy for alot of you here, its something I literally don't have the time for and the patience to take apart my car. I'd like to mount the antenna high behind the tint strip to the right of my RVM. My V1 occupies the left side of the RVM. Will mounting these two detectors that close to eachother effect the performance of one or the other, or both? All comments and advice are welcome.

    Segments 2 (33.8), 5 (34.7), and 8 (35.5) are the only ones you will need enabled. All the other segments you can turn off.

    Are you guys using segmentation when switching RDR off? Turning off seg 1 should kill most of the Ka falsing from other detectors I would think.
