Pro 78se 35.5Ka video 9/3/2009

[Freebird]

I know what you mean. I run my 9500ix with my V1 just for spec. Otherwise I wouldn't risk it.

Do you notice any interference running both together? I wonder if there will be any interference issues if I get a V1 and run it along side my Pro 78se? I should ask Freebird, since he has both.

Interferance is easy to spot. One will be silent on an alert until almost 200 feet from the leo and when it alerts it will be like instant on. I have runs alot of units and had no interferance issues, but running a Whistler in my and DJ's test the Whistler interfered with the CI to a point on 35.5 the CI was silent until almost 100 feet from the radar gun. I would try them together and see what you observe. Its easy to spot interferance IMO.

Well, in that case, I've noticed no interference between the 9500ix and the V1. In fact, my results running the two together are pretty characteristic of what you might expect.

I run them as far apart as I comfortably can.

no 2 radar detectors even same model and brand will emit the same emissions. If they are going to interfere, one will be emitting ka 34.7, 33.8 or 35.5. Not on the exact freq, but if it is leaking the other detector will pick it up, filter it and ignore other alerts close to that frequency. There is no way to tell if one will interfere with the other without testing them for some time together, to determine if one shows a signifigant loss in performance IMO.

I also noticed when I hold the 9500ix right next to the V1, it falses on X.

Going into programming mode on my old V1 made my STI alert to 35.5. Only in programming mode could I find and interferance.

I do not feel you need it. People with V1's back east dream of performance you are getting with you 78Se.

Thanks for the info. I don't want more range, but I do want those arrows. I can't tell you how many times I wished I had arrows to tell me where to look for the leos. My eyes often feels like they are ready to pop out because I would look in my RVM, to the sides and everywhere when I get a alert.

[Freebird]

The arrows are priceless, especially at night. You will enjoy the V1.

If I ever get my wife's approval to buy a V1, it'll be thoroughly tested.

With Ka guard off my V1 falses Ka to my 9500ix when they are antenna to antenna. My 9500ix never made a pep. With Ka guard on the V1 is also quiet.

Very nice videos and range ! Your videos just keep getting better I can tell the SE platform is very noticeable on Ka 35.5 forward facing compared to my Pro 78. Keep it up Mike. I have half of the cost of a Pro 78 SE saved and will be able to purchase one within a month or so. Money is tight since my fiance hasn't got a job yet since she has been out of school. As for the V1 it has arrows but no Ka id. I would rather have the ID instead of arrows. The arrows take all the fun out of the cat and mouse game.

Why not just run two Whistlers: One on the front windshield, one on the rear. Depending which RD alerts first, it should give you a pretty good idea of where the source is.

I disagree. Arrows make it more fun!
