The only difference is that in City mode the x band volume will be at a muted level or muted totally till it hits alert level 3 - nothing else changes.
ya right after i posted that topic, i looked it up online and read it lol..
Question though: If i turn the RD on city mode on the high way in an area i know doesn't use x-band radar, then will it heighten its other senses to Ka-band and K-band radar? or is it not turning it off, just muting it?
I can't speak for Cobras in general but I do know that by switching toOriginally Posted by alias3r
city mode on my X50 that none of the other bands are heightened.
Even if X band is turned off completely the other bands still stay the same.
I have heard even while a band is turned off, it's still scanning but
doesn't display if it picks anything up.
I do know for a fact that if POP is on KA performance takes a big hit.
with a cobra, i would just run it in Highway mode all the time
With Cobras, City mode just suppresses X alerts up to a point to a single Beep. It does not affect detection behavior or performance in any way at all. This is unlike many other detectors, which in their X-band desensitizing modes would instead report other signals they're receiving, such as a Ka-band alert from the cop sitting next to the door opener
how come? is there any advantages?Originally Posted by Bear-Tweezy
Cuz he's a moron. Lol JK.Originally Posted by alias3r
Don't run it in h mode unless you know X band is in use in your area/state. If it is - I'd only prolly run it only on the highway because there are too may X falses here.
Try the different modes - neither is better - just preference and what you want.
same here, and i havent really seen x-band used, but if driving in city doesnt heighten the Ka-band and K-band radar, then i might just drive in highway.....or maybe city... idk i'll prob just use city for city & highway fo highway lol.
when i had my 9210 i remember reading something in the manual about putting it in Highway increases detection range on k and ka and whatever other 10 bands there were...lol
