    Default WHAT?!

    I swear I'm using a cobra. When driving home today, I don't even have a mounted camera, these were all just random falses I got home, ever since I've reset it, its been hell. What should I do? and YES, pop is off. Sorry for the crappy phone quality.

    Send to Mike B for a check up ! I maybe have 5 Ka falses a week with Ka max and pop off with Filter mode. Pay attention to other detectors around you. TURN KA MAX OFF IN THE CITY AND USE KA MAX FOR HIGHWAY/INTERSTATE DRIVING.

    I would like to know the Ka false source and what it is.

    This is with Ka Max on? If not, I'd definitely send it in to have it looked at. Something isn't quite right, Whistlers do false as do many other detectors, but you seem to be experiencing falses very frequently in an area that is not so densely populated.

    Any malls, shopping centers or industry centers set it off. And its kinda bad otherwise anyways.

    This is with KA max on, and I am kinda reluctant to turn it off...

    If there is many automatic doors in the same area the Whistler will alert to Ka because of all the mixed frequency's. I would do another reset and then turn off Ka max and drive the same route and see what happens. A few certain towers can set of the Whistler also.

    Its not just this route though, its everywhere. I can't go past any mall (all do have auto doors) with KA max on and not get infinity false alerts...i guess i could try with it off, how much does that hurt the range?

    Is all the falses all on Ka band? Ka max doesn't do much good in town. Ka normal gives plenty of warning time. I think there is a issue and you should PM Mike B.
