    Default False ka question

    I don't remember the model number but I had a v1 that was about 5years old and I never got a false ka alert. Last month it took a crap in it self cause the volume was not working right so I said what the hell I'll just upgrade it. So far ive got about 30 false ka alerts I turned off ka guard it help some. I just don't like that I use to know that ka was never false and now when I here deet-deet I don't know what to expect I use to trust my ka alert. Is this just the new version downside

    ka guard works very well, and i have never had the urge to turn it off. the junk alert will take care of the false ka pop alerts with ka guard on

    The V1 usually does not false very much with POP mode activated (it works pretty good on the V1) but you would get more Ka falsing than with POP turned off. To turn it off set the J option in programming mode to down arrow.

    Give it a try. There are very few agencies that have POP capable radars and the only real drawback is a slight loss in performance on K-Band. If you still get alot of Ka falsing, then you either have a very HOT V1 picking up LEOs in the next township or might have a problem and should consider having it checked out.
