Best Settings

I'd like to elaborate....The location of the strongest signal is identified but the flashing arrow when there are multiple bogeys. Also something you should pay attention to is the band identification. If the V1 is picking up a K door opener and a Ka cop at the same time, the band indicator with the strongest signal will flash. The accompanying flashing arrow will point to where the strongest band is. This really starts to get confusing when you have two bands identified, four bogeys, bouncing arrows, and are trying to make sure your 44oz Cherry Limeade that you just got at Sonic for half price doesn't turn into a 44oz seat decoration. This may or may not have happened to me today as I pulled out of Sonic toward a construction zone that happened to be hosting an accident with 3 responding LEOs... Luckily every conceivable situation in which this kind of overload happens would involve the operator being -10 psl already.

Just to go off on a tangent, though...I could see this happening where the driver's car (a black corvette?) was being pursued by a group of very pissed off LEOs that recently stumbled upon a website that hosts videos that make a mockery of their traffic stings. This type of situation would, indeed, result in a plethora of bands, bogeys, and arrow discrepencies adding noise to an already tense situation. I'm sure that this is just a theoretical, fantastical situation though. Surely this wouldn't happen to anyone that views these forums frequently.

I have been running my V1 for a couple days in the setting I selected and I'll have to say with the 20 second muting and other setting I chose it is no more noisy than my GX65 without using the lockout......Final word....V1 WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?

How's the sensitivity compared to the GX?

[BlinderGuy]

On falses its the same...On the real deal threats all I can say is HOLY SH*T!

Glad you like your V1 -- Yeah, from my experience, the V1 is significantly more sensitive than the Escort M4 platform, PARTICULARLY on off-axis threats there's not even a contest. If you ignore alerts under 4 dots, it's more or less the equivalent behavior of a M4 without GPS locking... And on the highway, it really provides you a level of confidence that I haven't seen another detector match.

welcome to the family.
When you set up your V1 the right way and you use it for a couple weeks you will start asking your self how you went through life without one
