Unanswered X65 questions...
I have some questions the Beltronics website nor the Bel manual seem to clarify...
I know the Escort X50 and the Bel X65 can detect POP mode, but the manual says 67ms bursts but
1) Does it detect the 14-16ms bursts I've been hearing about lately?
2) Does POP come in burst of K or Ka? Both?
3) What does AutoScan do exactly? I still receive constant falses in the same areas as if I had it in "Highway" Mode... there is no difference.
4) I live in Central FL, is it safe to disable X-band since I here only small towns and NJ still use X-band (my RD reaches 8/10 signal strength at some red lights or intersections for no reason, not an LEO in sight!... but thats still kinda strong....) Thanks for the help in advance! :)

1.) SML tests, I believe the rx65 was the ONLY detector to pick up 14ms POP
2.) both
3.) Autoscan breaks the X band signal into 32 channels, and if 4 channels are higher then a certain threshhold it will alert.
4.) do not turn X band off in florida. I believe I read somthing abouyt a floridian getting hit with X not to long ago...

See this thread. Someone posted a Florida Statute saying that only K and Ka are approved for use:
