    Auto mode and that's it. Since, if I remember correctly, you live in Florida, X band off is fine.

    Leave it stock for a week or so to get use to it. Then if your sure POP isn’t being used (probably not) you can turn it off.
    Because of TrueLock you wont need to turn off X band unless you really want too.

    There are a tone of things you can do, but first familiarize your self with the basics.

    Congratulations...

    My suggestion is leave X on, and turn POP off

    you can lockout any X sources anyways, that way if you leave the state you don't have to remember to turn it back on

    X2, there's no reason to have X band on if the laws do not allow the police to use this band of radar.

    I completely agree with this, why not use the tools the RD has, that’s what its for. I have seen too many instances where X will pop up in a non X state, or be used out side of your normal area. God forbid i forget to turn on X band and drive through NJ or 287/87 in NY and get busted.
    Its a pretty safe bet to turn X off, but its kind of fun locking out those X falses too.

    I think POP is off by default. I am looking at the Quick Reference Card. Ku and SWS are also off by default.

    I have had mine two weeks and I am still in Auto Mode.
