Unknown Alert

[BlinderGuy]

I don't have my manual because I 'm on vacation so I hope someone can help. I was getting a solid Ka alert and spotted the cop with a customer. All of a sudden I got strange alert where the display started flashing a big J. What does that mean? I have never had this type of alert!

That's the J alert which is made to lock out leaky cobras but seems to lock out real signals some times

The V1's J alert means that the V1 decided what you were detecting was a false alert and discarded the alert.

The J notifies the user of a Junk alert, however I've had one encounter with a legitimate LEO running Ka, which resulted in a J out on the V1. Other than that it's been pretty good. You can never be too careful with a Ka alert and I wouldn't disregard a J out alert.

Blinder Guy, what is the software version of your V1?

brettzo, are you saying that the 3.872 still junks a real threat?

I never had this issue with my v1. It never J out a LEO.

Are you sure it was LEO running C/O KA....

I've had one encounter in the city where I got a J out on Ka with a LEO parked on the shoulder, however I'm not 100% certain that the J out was initiated by the LEO itself, as it could have very well of been a legitimate J out in a congested metropolitan area.

At the time I was pretty convinced it was a wrongful J out, but can't confirm. I have yet to experience a false J out that I can confirm 100%.

Check out happya$$ sticky about the J alert to find it out for sure. LEO J outs does not happen all the time but there have been reports about it.

I guess it does occur. I have pop off so i rarely ever get J out.
