I'm sending my x50 in for a tune up. I want to keep the rev 5 and tune it all to new..
What excatly do I do, and how do I know they won't update the rev?
How much will this cost me ?
And could this make my detector worst in any way cause its not going to be factory perfected (assuming a human will adjust it)?
Is there anything wrong with your X50? If it's not displaying Self Cal messages or the Service Required message I don't think it does much good to send it in.
But if you want to send it in for a tune up it should be the same cost as if you were to send it in with a Service Required message. It should cost $59.95 for the X50. I don't know if they will replace any of the casing or lens area if that's what you wanted them to do to make the unit look 'new'. That is something you should ask them.
To send in your unit call their customer service at 800-543-1608 and let the customer service representative know that you want to get your X50 tuned. They should give you a repair authorization number and instructions on how to send it in to them.
I'm pretty sure they won't update the revision since Rev 5 uses completely different antenna design from the Rev 6's and up unless they happen to lose your X50 in the mail and replace it with a Rev 6.1 which happened to someone on the board...can't think of the username off the top of my head. As for making your detector worse, who knows? I would imagine that getting it tuned by the factory would only make it better, but I don't have any experience from sending a X50 in for repair.
Hope this helps.

hmmmm I know yall think its a waste to send it in but, possibly its all in my head and the rd is doing fine.....
You might as well send them an envelope with cash. It would be no different. You would be completely wasting your moneyQuote:

I sent my 8500 non x50 in for service required. They cleaned it up and replaced the lenses.
Im guessing mine is a Rev 5 too.
