Because its picking up a frequency i believe

Like sometimes with older radars it picks up atm's etc etc

You should be able to tell the difference between a police radar and an burger beep unless they arre the same ?????

i have noticed this also. and no v1s dont false alarm.
I have never been up queen st with mine and picked up shit signals like every other detector out there.

not sure what it is, but its usually just as im coming up to the window.

Its also a dietician detector, and warning you of the calories ahead

maybe they have some kind of sensor so they know a car is there?

and yes V1s can false alarm.

What is it picking up? Ka band or laser?

Red neon signs will set off the laser alert which BK has a lot of.
Those highway warning signs set off the laser alert too.

yeah laser warning off those signs.

V1 would have to be the best radar detector i have seen in action.

no i dont have one myself. dont need one!

but i have been in cars and they have picked up phantom cops!
of course some may not be phantoms!

that said, they are leagues ahead of anything else around

I wouldnt say that, bell have better models avalable like their conceled one with remote sensors but at $1400 it isnt cheap.

I myself have a V1 though, it does faulse alarm sometimes that is because some other radar detectors actually let off ka band radiation and since V1's are quite sensitive it will triger them. Allthough it will come up as a very weak signal, if there is a cop the v1 will go mental.
