    Default Greetings

    New member here. I have been pouring over the site for the last week trying to make a decision on which box to buy. I finally came to the conclusion that there is probably no "right" decision. There is going to be a compromise with any detector for some situations. Since my driving at + speed is usually outside town I decided on getting a V1. It should arrive tomorrow and I hope I can beat the brown truck here because they only ship with signature required. I will not be happy if I see a pink slip stuck to my front door when I get home tomorrow! Nice site, I am learning a lot and look forward to finding tips to make my detector shine.

    just got my v1 today. love it so far. i dont find it complicated to use at all. i use A mode on the highway, and little "L" mode when off the highway. works like a charm.

    good luck with it.

    Good to know the factory modes are satisfactory. I really liked the fact that you can actually program it the way that suits you best. That weighed heavily in my decision. Most devices don't allow that much freedom.

    True. But i would advise running the V1 in its A mode or L modes without any changes to the settings. So you can get a better idea on how the beast operates.

    I totally agree with your advice. I am going to run with the various factory modes and see what works and what doesn't for my style and area. Once I have some experience with it I can make any tweaks needed. Again that was one of my deciding factors. I love to tinker with things.
