Problems problems problems...

Having an issue it seems with my beltronics sti driver.... was wondering if anybody else out there has had this issue with their sti. It will one time detect k band outstanding outperforming or matching v1. Then the next it will underperform to the point that I have actually drove right past a gfs foods which was a highly known k band false and I received nothing untill after I passed gfs? Why is beltronics so unreliable you would think for 500 bucks it wouldn't fade in and out maybe I should take Nma's advice and send into Beltronics. It seems like just yesterday I got the unit though and im already seeming to have an issue with it?

My STI has always detected it's normal false points at pretty much identical distances.

Seems to me problems problems... guess maybe I should think about sending the unit back into bel $hit man! I'll tell ya high performance electronic equipment sure can get expensive sometimes....

Just seems like it's a little shady on k band alpine. Call BelEscort and give "SPECIFIC" details of what needs to be done. Since it is still under warranty, ask for a prepaid shipping label from Bel.

Ok, your judging the performance of you RD with a f**** electric door?
Maybe the thing wasn't even turned on or noone using it :shock: Ever thought about that mate?

It doesn't matter if anybody is using the door because they are always shooting radar.

This is very true!

There are factors affecting that situation. It also does the same thing with the X50 or V1. You get 1 bogey at times, 2 the next time and 3 there after. You also get longer range at times and shorter range at times. There can be cars(traffic) that blocks the line of sight from auto door openers. As far as i am concerned, the STI had good K band detection. You really need to test it with no interference(open field) to check it out. I do have a modified auto door opener that i use to test multiple bogeys in K band, an MPH BEE K band radar and Ka band Kustom Golden Eagle. I find that out to be nornal in your situation and not a problem. Using that as a standard for testing your RD is in no way reliable. Hope that helps.

F***, i am being nice :wink: But, point taken though :o

I was thinking Mike B's lab results kinda tell all when it comes to the STI. You know it detected that time but not the next.
I have also seen a rx65 fail with K band very badly. Think outrun posted a vid using his bushman K band gun the 65 detected K band something like 50% of the time. Anyway.......

I reckon alpinestars_2002795 problem is the doors freq is outside the the STI's K band scan and when he gone down the road a bit the K band reflexion bounces it back into the STI K ban detection. The reason why it's doing this now could be the shop owner has moved the automatic door opener mount to stop the door from giving false alerts (people walking by but not coming in) Also it's cold over that way right so keep the door closed!!
I'm sure the V1 will still pick up the door in "A" mode as the K band scan on the V1 is a bit wider the the StI's. alpinestars_2002795 you could test this out with the feq's display on the STI to see what freq the doors giving off when the STI's detects the door.
