    Default 3.813 V1 Explanation

    I wanted everyone to know that who ever is thinking about buying a 3.813 V1 should know what they are getting. What you are going to get is a V1 that is bug free. TOP NOTCH performance is not guaranteed since manufacturing variance exists. Do not buy it thinking that you will get the most DB's ever.

    Great insight.

    This is true for every model of Rd produced. Just because you have a specific Rd or software version doesnt mean all units will perform the same as this is due to mfg variances as he stated.

    Doesn't this basically contradict everything he just said lol?

    Really, you can't make such a statement because you havn't observed the entire population of V1's in existence. I'm not trying to offend you, this is simply a rule of statistics. Consult a basic stats book and you will find the same thing.

    This may have very well been your experience from the small sample of V1's which you encountered, however, it MAY not be true for ALL V1's.

    Once again, this is not meant to be offensive.

    What is true for a small sample is not always true for the population.

    If you were born in Italy and never left you might assume everyone in the world was Italian, however, you are only observing a small sample of the larger population (the world). I hope this makes sense.

    no, I think my statement is correct. I've owned over 8 V1's and tested more than I can remember, and they have all been very consistent. My 3.813 whoops up on HappyA$$'s on X band because of manufacturer difference. His only put down 116DB's on X where as mine is some where around 118 or 119. Aside from manufacturer difference, all the ones I have used have been very consistent.

    Point being my 3.813 tied a 3.826 on X band. So it's not that mine is a freak, it's just manufacturer difference.

    Sure I can't speak for every V1 sold but If I can account for over 15 as being about the same so 15 out of 15 is 100%. See how fun statistics can be? I can skew the results to look anyway I want.

    Lol, its all good Staton. You can believe what you want. I'm just presenting the intellectual side of the arguement which you can either accept or reject. Feel free to skew the results how you want.

    3.863 with J option arrow down = 3.813 with more tweaks, right? *shrugs*

    Also add more software complexity since POP is involved
