Is there a way to turn X-Band off on the V940 model? I know you can on the 955 but is there any way to do it on the 940??

No, the closeset you can get on the V940 is to run in City LoX.Originally Posted by drochebs
How does City Lo-X work? Is that where the detector stays quiet until the radar source goes above four or five lights?
CityLoX will only reduce X-band sensitivity.
K and Ka-bands sensitivity stays the same.
I like your RD9XL pic, I lost mine. :cry:

drochebs,
In LoX mode, the detector will show the initial X band alert visually. Once it reaches a certain threshold, 5 leds I think, then it will alert with audio. This is the way my V965 works. Hope this helps.
I have three RD9XLs. Still using two of them. The third rusted out (really, the circuits inside rusted) in humid FL.Originally Posted by drochebs
PM me if you really want a power cord. I must have one around here somewhere. When I installed them I got 8 volt voltage regulators from RadioShack (no longer available) and built little power modules that hide under the dash.
I love these units. I have bought three or four detectors since and taken them back because the RD9XLs just seem to do a better job.

The 9XL was an excellent detector in its day (had one myself...)but keep in mind that it doesn't detect Ka band (which is the most common band today).Originally Posted by Petec
Living in Buffalo, you have to contend with Ka (34.7) from the State Police and Erie County Sheriff, and I've seen Niagara police using Ka 35.5--all which your RD9XL won't detect.

I FOUND IT!!! My wife put it up not knowing what it was.....now where is the cord? :?Originally Posted by drochebs
