    Default I finally upgraded. What are best V1 settings?

    Well after getting tired of falsing, I finally bought 2 new V1s this week to replace my 3.813 and 3.863.

    I do not have the bluetooth module to narrow down the bands for my area (or what I presume it is called based on what I've read). Do you all have suggestions for what settings to enable or disable? I will disable X band, but should I enable options like K band mute for 3 seconds (?)

    I used to read these forums all the time and had bunch of options custom set in my radar, but I no longer remember what was suggested. Thanks a lot. I am picking up a used M5 v10 so I guess it was time for a new radar hehehe. Guess I need to install LI jammer too on that.

    I just had my V-1 updated so I could use the V-1 connection. There is an app called YV1 that you can use. It is pretty awesome. I've had my V-1 since 2009. Having this V-1 connect and YV1 wow, what a difference.

    As a very good legacy "parking Sensor",the L.I. is no longer the Top Dog !
    You'll no longer have full protection from the latest generation of modern Lidar guns that LE now uses.Take some time to review the AntiLaser "Priority" model before spending any money on your choice.

    X2, YaV1 makes the V1 by far the most customizable for the individuals needs.

    Here is a link to RD.net App section with YaV1 info: http://www.radardetector.net/forums/...1-support.html

    After months of experimentation, I found these settings/sweep patterns worked best for me.

    Hi VG so..out from your testing did you find that running with no sweeps on 33.8 ka is the best way to go???as the v1 automaticly sweeps it in Euro Mode.
    Thanks

    Yes. Had a 33.8 sweep in there and then an online member suggested a substitution with a 34.7 band and it didn't appear to have any adverse impact on Low Ka and it appeared to help slightly with Mid 34.7.

    33.8, IMO, is the V1's best Ka band. I find it frequently out alerts any/all M3s on that specific frequency. Leaving the extra 33.8 sweep didn't appear to improve on it (and didn't need to).

    Then without question, the V1 is the top-of-the-food-chain or as I coined it, the "King of Kings" particularly true with 33.8, laser.
