    It's happend to me. Trooper was running front KA radar and gunning lidar to the rear. The V1 picked it up as I was starting around the corner, I slowed down and about 5 seconds later got lasered. Good but lucky save by the V1. I was impressed that it sniffed out the radar bieng shot to the front as far away and around the curve as it did.

    They forget to turn the dashmount radar off when running laser sometimes. I'm not complaining though.

    So, the Ka was from a LEO coming up behind you? The laser wouldn't have come from him, as laser can't be used while moving. What about the K? Was that a LEO or a door opener? Did you spot the laser trap?

    The laser could have come from an Infiniti with their annoying adaptive cruise control as well.

    K-band can also be those digitalish road signs they use to display traffic updates in construction areas. Even when they're not displaying anything they can throw out k bands as I found out yesterday, when I K banded + Ka -> J out. That was fun.
