    No, I believe it's QT. However, it's only happened to me with POP on. Reason why I think its QT is because I travel a lot on Texas' interstates and I encounter a lot of QT with Texas DPS on Ka 34.7.

    Do you have POP enabled?

    On a side note, I got a 34.3 alert today. Usually get some type of Ka alert here, it varies from day to day. I've seen 33.8, 34.0, and now 34.3 in the same spot. No LEOs in sight. Area is in between a shopping center, oil refinery, and a few MAJOR aerospace companies. I'm sure at least one of them is emitting the radar.

    POP was enabled at that time but I disabled it right after.

    LOL, I'm still getting used to false KA POP and Real Laser alerts on the STi-R, laser froze me up again today coming back from Georgetown, luckily the jammers saved me and I had time to slow down, that cop shot me like 6 times, even after the jammer was off he shot me one more time

    Was the LEO in sight? When you have POP on you really increase your chances of getting falses from leaky radar detectors and pulses from Microwave/Communication towers.

    I made a video of POP mode.

    The PULSE Alert can only happen when POP is ON and the unit receives a VERY STRONG signal.

    PULSE Alerts are disabled when POP is OFF
