    yeah as i have said the 825 has a much much better city mode the automute has been fixed from the 824 its real good. In the sml test 2005 Roy still doesnt like it.You should make up your own mine on this one
    Ps The auto mute only works on the small "L"its the way its alway been call it the progamme mode.

    Patan, Welcome to the board. Congrats on the new V1! You should have the latest firmware if you recieved it last week. My wife's new RD showed up last week also and it had the latest firmware.

    Take some time to get to know your detector and the areas you drive. It may take you a week or two to get to know all of the common areas you drive and to remember how many radar your detector picks ups and what type. Once you have a good idea of your normal commutes the V1 will become priceless.

    I have found that even after many many years of using a detector I am constantly learning something new. You will find some incredible stuff on this board that will help with your new toy.

    Drive safe, have fun,

    In the past automute has always worked in both logic modes
    Meaning advanced logic mode or the big L works exactly like X band giving no lights and sound until you break the threshold or time limit.

    Are you saying that this does not happen anymore?
    To get K band automute did you set section 7 or does this new unit automute without setting section 7

    What if you had the Zegers "stealth" modification?

    Would you send it in for a software upgrade?

    Wouldn't that mess up the software changes that Zegers and his engineer have made for "stealth"?

    Will Valentine send it back "as is" because it has been tampered with?

    You were at SML 2005 Seth, what's the status of the love match between Mike and Zegers?

    To calm your nerves as to whether or not you have the latest revision...you can go to the V1 website and type in your serial.

    It's funny how some members have been against screening or automuting K band this whole time as a fear of running into an instant on speed trap and now they are all for being stuck with it. Right Sethy?
    Are you talking about how i dont use the K-band automute?

    Automute is enabled by default. For sometimes it works, others it doesn't. Someone else mentioned this as well.

    Yes, You have always been against it and now you are ready to get a new 3.825 and you won't be able to turn k band automuting off unless you go to A mode but then you open up your unit to the full range of X band which is used in your area.
