    Default Oregon Uses alot of X-band

    Planning a trip or live in Oregon? I Drive 48 states (commercial driver) and find only a few use X-band. Oregon Highway patol uses x mainly, with some units using k and ka. So if you live or are planning a trip thru Oregon, activate the x-band.

    On my V1 I always keep X-band on. I don't want to be the one to have the story about how a cop used 20-year-old CO technology to hand me a speeding ticket while the best detector in the world failed to protect me

    good practice, but still, in Florida cops can't give us tickets with X.. I believe elvato has the source for this.

    X's two my friend. I just turned POP off and Ka more responsive. The only K I've encountered is the 9 or more sources in one spot near my house and my neighbor's house burglar alarm.
