Okay guys thanks for all the insight. I guess the one I got just was a bad unit..I guess I was crazy but it just felt like the build quality went down. I can't really describe what I mean anymore...

I had a 9500ix as well, and I was very pleased with it. I just need to know whether anybody has recently purchased an X50 new, and whether or not it had the same problem as the one I returned, or if...

Just a little background info: I bought an X50 new in 2007, which I was very pleased with. It was an all around good detector. It felt reasonable sturdy, the audio was good, and it was a good...

Thank you for the info. I will give that a try later tonight

Okay, i cleared the memory again and im about to download 1.1, THEN upload my good lockouts to the RD, will this give me the smaller radius or do i need to lockout everything all over again?

No ive had the door opener locked out for months. And yes i have downloaded 1.1 in the past but do i have to do it again since i cleared the lockout memory and did a reset?

I had an interesting problem with my IX today. In the morning heading to work, there was a K band speed trailer set up, which to the IX alerted perfectly. On my lunch break, i travelled the same road...

I just want to thank everybody for their help, I hardwired my IX the right way and made all the connections secure and the falsing is gone, I even got a 1.5 mile warning on 33.8 Ka last night! :) ...

Ok i do have an Ac-Dc adapter so il try that. And i am embarassed to say that i somewhat half assed the hardwiring job since i ran out of electrical tape so i just crimped the wire to the fusebox,...

At this time i have no other vehicle to try it in...ive done factory reset multiple times, and FYI i have it hardwired into the vehicles fuse box

The only reason i turned pop on is to see if that would fix or eliminate the problem. With POP turned off, thats when in spec mode i get the weird Ka frequencies..ive had POP off ever since I bought...

Sorry to bring up this thread again, but my 9500ix is still falsing on ka about once a day..with POP mode on, it registers as a POP false. In spec mode, the frequency can be anywhere from 33.6 to...

Is it possible for a bad hardwire connection to cause this? Because it wasnt doing this with the coiled smartcord

No i am not. I just find it odd that ive had the detector since christmas and it's never done this, ive gotten like 4 hits in the last 14 hours

I mean im getting these falses in areas where ive never gotten a false, let alone a ka false..

Today and last night my recently hardwired 9500ix has been picking up intermittant Ka signals around the range of 33.642 GHz. I would have thought it was just a cobra but i've gotten like 4 of these...

Yeah that sounds about right, thank you. I'm dying for that 9500 IX...:)

I'm trying to sell my X50 rev 6.3 on ebay now after no responses on craigslist. How much do you think would be a reasonable asking price for a near perfect condition red display X50 with the case,...

Thanks for the link. I also read about the upcoming Escort ZR4...I might wait until this comes out until I decide between that and the Blinder M25...

I'm thinking about getting one, and the two I hear most about are the Blinder M25/45 and the Escort ZR3. What are your opinions on these two and which one would you recommend? Also...

1. How...

What are the advantages or using the SpecMode display and what is its use? Does each department use a specific radar frequency or something? I have been around police scanners for a while now, and...

Actually they only use laser on predetermined speed traps, and they will only shoot you with laser after they visually determine that you might be speeding. To add to that, they will sit in the most...

You are an asshole. Has it ever dawned on you that those turnarounds are used by people who have car trouble, and some of us pay LOTS of money for larger or lower profile tires ($800 for a set of...

I have my X50 mounted about midway up the windshield on my Honda Civic...I have heard that laser reception is better when it's mounted lower. Has anyone had good laser reception with the detector...

Thanks guys, and yes it's a sweet detector. It's also my first. Actually regarding my 3rd question, I meant it died out in about 3 seconds, not minutes. I would expect if he turned off his radar...
