For Anyone That Thinks The V1 Has Bad Off Axis Detection!

[happya$$]

Today while getting to stop at the intersection I started to pick up a weak Ka 34.7 alert. While stopped the signal continued and the arrows pointed to the side. I make my left hand turn and the signal is getting stronger. About a half mile later I make a visual with the cop as he is coming in the opposite direction. I must say I was impressed as hell especially since we all know how easy it is for the cops to get reading off to the side perpendicular and .69 miles down the road :wink: IMO people that say the V1 lacks off axis detection are full of BS. On X and K the V1 owns off axis for me and I own two of them. This was my first AWESOME off axis detection on Ka 34.7. For all of you haters take note. All in all I got about .69 miles of perpendicular detection (used google earth). Not bad for Ka 34.7gh

Excellent :!:

I take it 34.7 is most common as you can't tell the frequency with the V1 alone.

EXCELLENT!

But, I don't get it. Who in their right mind "hates" the V1?

I've had a v1 since 1993 and never thought off axis detection was a problem.

V1 off axis detection ability seems not as good as Rx65 ??

Which one of the three V1's were you using Happy?

A 1.7 could turn out to have better off-axis radar detection since a 1.8 shrunk the front radar antenna design in able to fit that big prism laser sensor into a smaller case taking up room where part of the 1.7 horn used to be.

If off-axis is done at GOL then 1.7 should be there, should be there anyway,
when is the next GOL test?

I have never had an off-axis problem as it seems that if a side street has a radar trap or sign on, my 1.7 never fails to chirp as passing.

EXCELLENT!

But, I don't get it. Who in their right mind "hates" the V1?

Do a search for V1 Zombies and they all come up!
A select few more than others!

Mine has terrible off axis detection... heck it has terrible head-on detection.... POS out of tune v1. Oh well.


Also was this in the city Happy? If so that makes 'off axis' detection much easier since there is SOOOO much for the radar signals to bounce off of around you. I always get better off-axis detection in the city with any of my detectors. In anycase, its a darn good alert, no doubt about that. I dont even get the .25miles you are talking about when the 5-0 is head-on with me.


Also 34.7, must be the only thing they use there then? Or did you see the antenna/gun configuration?

V1 Dave: Your a f**king zombie, so shut your trap.

happya$$ is the biggest V1 zombie around
I don't blame happya$$ for using a V1. It's probably the best for him since backwards Ohio still uses X band.

Keep it real!

people who wish they had one, hahaha

Still trying to attack the fact that V1 does what it is supposed to do?
Still get mad when members debunk false performance rumors about the V1?
Still can't make a post without using the F word?
I was trying to stay neutral but your name is number one in that V1 Zombie search.

Your the one that constantly bashes the V1, claims that your V1 never works right, is not your favorite, yet you keep it if you really have one.
I have my suspicions that you just say you have one to make it look like you are unbiased.

Truth is that you are an Escort Zombie yet you don't see me over at Escort bashing Escorts.
Escort is my second favorite but who needs two, especially when V1 is superior!
