I bought my v1 off ebay. It was a 3.821. I was suspicious of its range, so I had it sent in for a tune-up. They took the 45 dollars, and I now have a 3.826 in my hands. Unfortunately, it's light...
Since anything above 3.826 is a "hardware" upgrade, chances are your V1 will be updated to 3.826 if you don't pay for the upgraded hardware.
I just got my v1 back from being tuned up (was 3.821)...
Western KY, haven't seen much laser or much activity from LEO's, however, have ran into some KA IO every once in a while.
It's too quiet where I live :|
people living in KY will tell you that county LEO's still use X-band (mainly around Maysville, KY or about 40-50 miles south of cincinnati.
I can't give you any details around western KY tho.
gotta love graphs that have no X-axis values.
14.6V is acceptable. IIRC, if it goes above 16V, then that's bad.
My RX65 reported 14.xV on the volt meter when I had it.
When you think about it, catching speeders in a construction zone is a no-brainer. For one, you shouldn't be speeding in a construction zone to begin with due to workers (though when they aren't...
even though I live in the middle of a farm town (my university) and have never lived in a big city, theft is not really a concern for me. However, even so, I still take down my V1 for theft...
so would it be a good possibility that v1 will update my RD if I send it in for a tune-up or will I have to request a software update?
I have a Valentine One that has version 3.821. I talked with V1 earlier today (I think mike V, but I was at the bank and never asked for his name..) and asked about the whole tune-up process.

Interesting post. I've have always wondered what the range of radar guns were. Even tho they can pick up a car's speed miles away, it's a pretty moot point on a major interstate (with...
would the seller's name happen to be beli59?
Cause I had that auction queued on my wish list but had already purchased a v1.
if you mute the detector, will it unmute if a stronger signal comes through?
I was playing around with the v1 mute when I had 3 K bogeys from sensors and noticed that I get a loud bogey lock when...
Seriously thinking about it, but I've yet to figure out if X is used in Western Kentucky. I know X is used in two locations around north eastern Kentucky around Alexandra but have yet to confirm X...
Well, I ended up taking the dive and bought a V1 off of eBay (yeah yeah) that came with the latest revision and box.
Anyways, I had a Bel rx65 before I bought a v1, and the rx65 did a good job...
I agree with the rabbit thing. They recently raised the speed limit to 70, but I still only do 5 over with no rabbit or light traffic. However, in heavier traffic or with a speedy rabbit, I'll do...
I'll try to post pictures later today. The problem with moving my RD mount is that if I use my visor, it'll come close to hitting the detector (or hit it) since I mount it the highest possible.
I have a university parking tag that's made of opaque plastic. My question is, will there be any effect on RD range the horn's view is slightly obstructed on the right side. The left side of the...
aren't dark tints usually responsible for increased break-ins?
I mean, if a thief looks around in the car and finds nothing tasty, what are the odds he'll bust the window in (save the thieves who...
If you call v1 and give them the serial, they'll tell you the status of the RD (stolen, clean). I've done that with a couple of ebay listings that looked really good, but they turned up stolen. ...
Yes, I do live in Paducah, KY, but mainly live in Murray, KY due to my university. I only travel just west of Lexington during the summer.
I haven't heard any reports of X band in Western...

I've heard about Pikeville, KY using X band. However, I'm nowhere close to Pikeville, even during the summer :P. Hell, I'm on the other side of KY haha.
Hoping for other Kentuckians to chime in,...
Some wal mart door openers will not set off K. I found a Wal Mart in NE Kentucky that my rx65 didn't alert to, so I assume it's on a difference frequency. However, it alerted to Goody's lol.
