    That is one mean looking detector. There is nothing cheap about a V1 unlike other detectors

    Jim,

    That dismantle/reasemble was worth it.
    I plugged it back in and it does not false on laser any more must have been a loose pin that connects the circuit boards. I did take it apart about two weeks ago, that must have jarred something.
    I will have to test it more by driving by a speed sign to see if it stopped picking up multiple bogies on a single.

    I would still send it out to VR just to make sure. You will get your money back so cost should not be an issue.

    You have just got the award for reviving a dead thread from the longest time ago.


    We have had some 2 years etc, but 4... unbelievable.



    I remember when I was a young buck back here in '05! Graduated from HS that year.

    well seeing as it's already raised, why did they change the horn design? The first horn seems to look better built? Was it for cost savings or is the newest horn better? Mem-tek???

    The best answer would be for GOL to do off-axis tests of the old and new horn designs to see how the two different designs perform.

    So why is there a resistor glued to the lens?

    The Professor theorized that the 0 Ohm resistor is to alter one of the antenna's side lobes in order to help make the arrows work more correctly.

    Sooo, after the tooling for casting the horn was signed off on they noticed it didn't work right so they glued something they had lying around to the lens to correct it

    Far friggin out...
