I also recently read that the V1 (which was long the detector I wanted) doesnt work as well on Ka band but is still excellent on two older bands (X and K I think?) I have decided I will have to go with a Bell 980 or 8500 probably myself :)

Do those radars actually work? I mean, is there anyone here that can actually say that those things saved them $$ on possible tickets? I'm pretty skeptical when it comes to those things. Someone, enlighten me..
