Welcome! Definitely going to need to see that setup.
I've been going through this same debate myself. Originally I was torn between V1 or the Sti-r. After thinking about it, I came to the same conclusion that I'd probably be better of going with a LJ...
Leaving POP on increases the sensitivity to pick up tiny traces if radar emitting from guns set on POP mode. In reality, all it does is turn your radar detector into a Cobra detector. You can turn...
Welcome!
Glad to see another member representing the X50
We had a pretty big chase around here back over the summer, where two racers were tagged on the highway doing upwards of 100 mph. They exited the highway in an attempt to run and continued the chase...
Welcome! Let us know how you like whichever detector you got.

Just...how?:dontknow:
Thanks so much for help everyone! I checked out where my radio antenna is mounted, and unfortunately it doesn't look like I can make my idea work without drilling my room. Right now I'm not excited...
Still sitting at work, so I'll actually take a look when I get home tonight. I'm thinking the hole from the AM/FM will be too small, and I'm hesitant to start drilling holes in the roof.
I went...
This is my theory. The biggest reason why higher is better for windshield mounted RDs is because this puts the detector at the level of other windshields, which gives a RD less obstructions to look...
Just to clarify, I setup the NMO mount and then any whip with a 3/8" thread will screw right on? This sounds perfect!
I'm thinking about a 3' Wilson fiberglass antenna, but could I use a Little...
:thumb2:
Now it's time to get my girl hooked on countermeasures.
So I would place the NMO mount on the outside mount for the AM/FM antenna, mount a CB whip to the NMO, and run the attached coax into the car to the actual CB?
Sorry if that sounds confusing, as I...
Why is it that remote mounts don't seem to be affected as much by height compared to windshield mounted units? I figured higher up on the the vehicle would still help performance.:confused:
I'm very new to CB radios, and I'm interested in setting one up in my car. I like stealthy installs for the aesthetics and the challenge of finding the most inconspicuous setup. Since I do not use...
Can't ever forget a trusty rabbit! I'm glad you brought that up, since sometimes technology won't be what saves us. Rabbits, situational awareness, and good ol' gut feelings shouldn't be neglected.
That just makes me wish there was some kind of all-in-one countermeasure, like a Swiss Army Knife. When that day comes, yes, all of them is a viable option.
Ah gotcha, that still sounds nice to me either way. What kind of range can you estimate your scanner gets?
RDR off will false on cobras and direct tv dishes.
But you don't have to turn RDR off.
Going from memory ;
Factory settings pick up about 60% of QT pulls
Segmenting picks up 80-90%...
Nice looking setup/collection, thanks for posting the link.
Sorry to go a little off topic, but how is the scanner reception with the rubber duck? Also, what does the A/V hookup do for the...
Very nice install, I like where you placed the display and controls.
Do you have pictures of the rest of your installed countermeasures?
What car or truck do you have, that would help decide whether the 2 heads would provide enough coverage. Also do you see more laser shot head on or from behind (in which case front and rear...
Well even with my X50 I can't miss a cobra user, although they are usually pretty close by.
Is the V1 pretty accurate with the "J" outs?
As far as city usage goes, I'm used to false alerts, mainly K band, but false none the less. I'd like to think situational awareness will help me stay sane with Ka falses around town. How about the...
