    Default Does the sensitivity increase when..

    ... you disable other bands? I disabled X band last week and I noticed a few times certain K falses would be picked up earlier than normal.

    I also turned off K as well because they only use Ka and laser in NYC Life is great.

    Ehh, I don't think its very noticeable. I remember reading some threads about it last year at this time. Somebody called VR and they said it doesn't make a difference.

    Doubtful. You're just disabling the alerts to the best of my knowledge.

    I know not everyone agrees on this, but I found leaving POP on increases range. Not sure about turning off other bands.

    In my opinion leaving POP on increases KA band false alerts.

    POP off makes K band QT performance similar to a Belscort. I would not turn POP off if K band QT is used in your area.
