Has anyone disabled X band on radar detector. I have a new V1 and seem to get way to many X band warnings, even on "L" logic mode. It seems that the local and city police use K and the State troopers use Ka or Laser.

Is anyone aware of any police still using X band?

Some still do, especially if you go through a small town. There is a way to do it on the V1, not sure how though. Go to the website and search around. I get X falses, but what makes the V1 perfect are the counter and arrows, I know where to expect them and can tell if there is more than normal and when I pass the source.

I just about got nailed in a small town just outside of KC on I70 because I was used to ignoring X band. I was lucky that there was a joint effort between local cops and the Highway Patrol, and I hit the brakes when the Ka hit.

I keep my V1 in small L (normal logic) mode because I like to know about everything around me. I become suspicious is there is a single X source in the middle of nowhere.

Lots of good information.

BTW: The V1 is the best, I've had one since 1994, and wouldn't leave home without it!

But can the cop's VG2 detect the V1?

They V1 is suppose to be undetectable.
