    Default Re: Erratic K band alerts

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I was on I70 in close to the Indiana/Illinois state line (cant recall which side I was on at the time - I'm going to say Illinois, heading west). If this happens again I'll look out for the Audi or Merc; I dont know what range their radar cruise controls work over, but I'd imagine it would have to be pretty close. And given that this was over a fairly long stretch of road, I think I would have noticed the pattern - but I'll pay more attention next time. My recollection is that the arrows would fluctuate during alerts - somewhat erratically.

    i know they have a lot of those signs on the indiana toll road but they are to detect animals that are crossing the road to help alert drivers...really annoying cuz a leo could easily hide in this area and be shooting c/o and you would never know

    Bogy lock tone (threat count) problem is then you would have to keep a close eye on muted K volume and LED's.
