Personally I'm like DJ, I use Spec Mode exclusively. However, according to the poll results a lot of you like the Expert Meter, so I'm trying to understand how you use it and what features you like about it. So here are some additional questions for you guys:
The 9500ci offers four - count 'em,
four - meter bars for X-band in Expert Meter mode, plus 2 bars for K and 2 for Ka.
Do you find the ability to track up to 4 X-band signals to be genuinely useful? Do you actually look at those teensy-weensy little signal bars? Or do you mostly just look at the band information?
OTOH, the STi-R equivalent to Expert Meter is the "Threat Display" which replaces the little bars with decimal digits 1-9. It seems this would be easier to read at a quick glance. It's not clear from the owner's manual, but it appears that the Threat Display can only track a single source in each band; is that correct? Do you consider the Threat Display less useful than the Expert Meter because of this?
