    Alright, thanks guys.


    I will be ordering tonight, someone stole my credit card number and used it with paypal.

    Or I would have ordered way sooner.

    Actually I have found that the Redline is no more chatty than an RX65 s7 or RX65 m4.

    My V1 falses less than my XTR-690se did. Can't remember the last Ka false since turning off POP. Go with the V1 and enable K-band automuting.

    V1 is the better choice, over the other two.

    Alright,

    I ordered it, I am a little confused.

    I placed my order Via CC, I was never sent a confirmation email.

    Is it normal?

    (I will post this one my V1 thread in V1 section too. as it may help others out)

    These settings make a V1 completely blind to K band I/O.

    hardly
    it's the CITY setting of any 'typical' detector, only more effective
    We would agree that it is unsuitable for rural or high-speed driving

    "the 4 LED* threshold is about the 'onset signal level' (refered to as Instant-On). If the initial strength is over 4, there is no muting [*E set to arrow UP]"

    Nope, DJ is right. I have had plenty of I/O warnings that were below the 4 LED threshold. PLENTY!

    But, that is not to say there is not a use for this feature. Just remember to switch back to A mode when jumping on the highway.

    I'll give you that. If you use the bare minimum of K band automuting, it's no worse than city mode on other RDs. That being said, if I lived in an area where K band I/O was used, I sure as hell wouldn't trust a V1 that didn't alert to I/O shots under 4 dots.
