    Default Why the 9500 trumpts the V1.

    Just reading through the 9500i manual... Can the V1 display this during an SWS alert!?

    "Blind/Deaf Child Area"

    I think not!


    Its a shame that SWS really isnt used. 9500 has a lot of them.

    SWS could of been such a useful tool. Too bad it was disregarded in the same way VR disregarded it.

    If SWS was actually used i wouldn't be using my V1 most likely. But fortunately for me SWS is not used so I get to have the worlds most sensitive dash mount radar detector
