Can the new falcon HR gun be positively identified by spec mode? In other words, will all falcon HR guns display the same frequency on spec mode. And if so anyone know what it is???

If you're talking about the handheld K band guns it will show up as a regular K signal 24.150
ok cool, K band spec mode might prove useful after all, when traveling in PAQuote:

Well, there are other frequencies for K band. The gun can be out of tune as well or a different gun is being used. I think the other numbers are 24.167-24.178 and 24.211
is the falcon HR the only low powered k-band gun being used by psp today? I dont want to react to every k-band signal as if I got 2 seconds to slow down if I dont have too. Just wondering if I can use spec mode to ID/ruleout A possible low powered threat? Since these guns are relatively new how long can it be til they're out of tune?Quote:

so your saying spec mode can not identify/ruleout a possible low powered Gun? i agree spec mode on an x50 has limitations and personally dont like it. But if it can give me an chance against the falcon HR its worth putting it out there for debateQuote:

Yes K is based at 24.150 but my Redline has almost never gotten it spot on. Frequencies generally won't help to identify a gun. If you get a K alert on a PA highway take it seriously because they almost exclusively use K. Now there are reports of Ka being used but I have yet to encounter it. If I get a K hit I always slow down, even if it turns out to be a drone better safe than sorry.
something more deadly them kustom HR is mph Z-15 k band gun,Narrow beam K Band antenna
Extremely simple to use
Instantaneous speed capture
Excellent target range
Compact and lightweight
Narrow beam K-band antenna
Comprehensive error detection.
it is and can be used by the psp.i have not seen one at all but it is one of the guns on the list of approve radar that can be used.
