As far as Whistler goes they have TOP NOTCH CS
    How many V1's have you had?
    How long do you keep one?
    That's because you buy and sell V1's as much as sethy.
    I have owned since 95' as well but I have the same one retrofitted.

    sethy's here!

    Happy is currently loving his 3.813 intermitantly tries his PRO-78 for comparison and would not switch for anything else at this point.

    I am guessing that sethy is currently thinking about stopping by VR and personally buying a brand new 3.862 but will not keep it for more than a few weeks or months because his love/hate relationship for a V1 will get to him.
    How am I doing?

    What caues V1's to go out of tune anyway? And how often does that happen? When you guys leave your car, do you take your detector or leave on the windshield or glove box?

    When it does go out of calibration, what indication do you get? A ticket?

    Well, they say an E should appear, but I have had a unit that has fallen out of tune back in the earlier days that did not give me an E.

    Wait, WHAT?

    I think you need to tell that story in detail.

    You know because it loses detection range/stops working on Your Speed signs. If you never drive through areas that use Your Speed signs...well...I guess you can use the door openers to test it...if there are no door openers or Your Speed signs in any place you drive through, move away from Siberia.

    I leave mine in the glove box, but lately I've been wondering if it's getting too hot even in there.
