    Default V1 3.851

    hey guys, i just posted a review on my last post. i just read valentines site, where it said the revision number was on the bootup sequence. i didnt know this previously, but i could have sworn seeing a 5 in there somewhere. i just now checked, and it showed v1 3.851. is this a crock of baloney or did i get a new revision? i remember calling valentine research asking about the upgrade policy, letting the woman know i didnt want to buy my unit only to have to buy an upgrade a month later. maybe she hookd me up, or maybe im goin crazy cuz i dont know v1 revision history. someone help me out!!

    The last known revision is 3.826, maybe they have a new rev. out? I wonder why it's 3.851 instead of 3.827 though, if it's true...

    When did you order/receive your unit? Bought new from VR?

    keep us updated if it is a new rev# and wether the J-bug is gone, Im thinking about getting one and this may be what makes the decision for me if there is a legit new rev out there...

    texan, i was too eager to learn how to change settings before i set for dallas, so i kept all the default settings. i dont know what the j bug is, but i only got one alert that j'ed out (pop on). im pretty sure it was a cheapie rd; in my review all the waco cops use KA, and i also encountered some other cops, all of which used KA, and none j'd out. on my way back, with pop disabled, i got nothing that j'ed out. ill keep you guys updated on performance with my 30 mile commutes everyday. this has to be a new revision, because i got it brand new from VR, and it shows 3. 8 5 1 in that bootup sequence.

    Awesome. . . I just ran my serial and they told me I had the newest. Perhaps they accidently gave you a too new one?

    BUT COOL NONE THE LESS!!

    Entered mine which is rev. 3.826, it told me this

    "V1 Description: Radar circuitry known in-house as V1.8—POP2 with Euro Mode. This is our latest and best performer on both radar and laser.

    Upgrade Recommendation: You already have our best. "

    I think this 3.851 is BS
