    Did you order the hardwire kit as well?

    No disappointments with V1, once you master it, it will become you driving buddy.

    Well it came today so i had to give it a try with factory settings. It definitely works LOL im just wondering what settings to use. Im thinking x off and possibly pop off i dont know I live in KY i know here they run a lot of k and ka I/O so i dont know if pop on helps this. I plan on hardwiring this thing up tomorrow and getting it out of the middle of the windshield.

    I'd keep POP on unless the J-outs from laeky detectors are unbearable. I ran POP off for months. Then I came across a thread recently in which jdong was talking about POP's effects on Ka and K, which convinced me to 'retry' turning POP on. It hasn't caused me any headaches so I left it on.

    I think one of the Pop radar gun makers are here in KY so id say i should leave it on because cops around here would probably write tickets with that even though they legally cant.

    Not only that; if it is used, it can help detect right before the deadly I/O shot and it's said to pick up K band a bit better.

    you definately won't be disappointed. its a badmofo.
    my only complaints are things like no blue LED and the tones arent as easily distinguishable as my 9500i.
    but I knew that going in...its just what I miss from my 9500i. Every once in a while I'm tempted to plug in the 9500i.
    Other than that it rocks. The feeling of knowing that any radar source in the area will be picked up without filtering outweighs the other stuff.
