When in Expert mode, and receiving more than 1 frequency does the ix announce "Multiple frequency's detected"?
Also does it have the arrows the ci has for cameras?

It's time to upgrade to the CI :)
This auto learn feature is probably the greatest feature EVER. I can run around in highway mode with none of the distractions. And if friends are in the car just throw it on auto no x when around shopping areas that haven't been stored, or if it's in a new area.
New toys rock!Quote:

It actually rotates around if you are passing it on a parallel basis and not going directly through that particular intersection. It is the exact same as the Ci except it is portable from car to car, does not have to be installed (yet is not secret like the Ci). Overall, a better unit than the Ci simply because of the portability.Quote:

Less falsing, just as good range (ran em both together with Eccosorb) and is so damn user friendly, you'd have to be "stupid" not to be able to plug and play this unit. Plus, the IX is updateable on line, a BIG plus!! Sorry, but I own BOTH and in My opinion, the 9500iX is better. This is all subjective until GOL gets a chance to get together on this one which I am sure is in the works.
I have a few questions: What does the GPS filter ON versus off do and what are advantages??? Its on the top front left of the detector. Also, my 9500 i announces that GPS is received, BUT the iX does not do this??? Wonder why???
The GPS filter on/off allows you to turn off all the GPS dependant features with one press.Quote:

GPS Filter On / Off: If you turn it off, it's like driving without true lock, and the speed camera databases. The only real reason I ever found for the feature, was during a GoL test.Quote:

Although I suppose Auto NoX does the same thing as long as you are traveling above 45MPH.
I'd like to see some pics of your eccosorb setup. Might give GoL some ideas for the future.
I can't wait to test the ix. I think it will hang with the V1, but just from my preliminary off the cuff testing the CI is dominating the V1 on X Band, and holds a marginal lead on K band. I hope to sniff out some Ka this weekend.
FYI - it doesnt shut off ALL GPS functions...because your unit will still display your speed via GPS tracking

This after weeks of passing them daily to and from work seeing them locked out.
yes.Quote:

It might be tricky to have the right scenario, but if you get 2 different bands at once it should do it no problem.

Which mode are you in to get the tracking lines pointing toward speed and red light camaras?
I guess I don't have this qoute thing down. I borrowed the first part of this post from an earlier post.
It works in every mode.Quote:

The autolearn feature:
everyday I pass a fixed speed signs that show your speed,shure enough on the third day it alerted K band,and I thought I guess not. but right after th alert,it showed STORED.Thats a fact, jack !
Having fun with my 9500ix !!
Anyone please confirm for me.:help::evil:Quote:

I found this out on the highway here where there are X-band drones, one particular spot has two of them together. I thought I was going to find out in a more 'typical' situation like going through a shopping center with X and K, but nope, two X band signals on the interstate! Right when it detects it, it says it, just like you mentioned "Multiple signals detected."
I always have mine in Expert mode and highly suggest it as well!
i run in expert mode and yes it does announce "multiple frequencies detected" when it encounters more than 2 different signals. ie: K and Ka.Quote:

Yeah right, then the freakin' thing would go nuts!
Thanks guys. Now i will send in my 9500I to be upgraded to an ix soon!
Big X2. Im a bit of an Expert mode freak. Glad the ix does it. DJ let me know if the ci does it too. I herd it doesent.Quote:
