X band off, K band makes a single beep, Ka is a double sound, ba dap. I never see those lights either. You will learn the different sound in no time.
what do you mean by x band off?
Audio works for me too.
If X band radar is not used in your area, then it might be safe to turn it off. Where do you live and drive? Members here might know if it's safe to turn X band off in your area. You can read the basics here:Quote:

My bad. I run x off on my V1 and leave it on highway mode on my Sti-R. Most people can run with it off, depends on where you live.Quote:

Yes it is so don't disable it. Doesn't really matter because all bands make a different sound on the V1. You will get used to the alerts soon enough.Quote:
