Got my answer
That’s a steal. You don’t need pop
ok thx
I prefer the older model vs. the newer. Less false BS, much less annoying.
Yes, yes and no
When the MPH radar is placed into POP mode, the radar emits a short burst of energy and quickly measures the vehicle’s speed. The radar then goes immediately into standby and displays the obtained speed for a couple of seconds. The entire measurement happens so quickly that the no radar detector in 1999 could detect it with any accuracy.
However, it is recommended that any police officer using POP radar only use it to obtain an estimate of a vehicles speed, then switch to normal mode to obtain the exact speed. The reason for this is POP radar is not 100% accurate and therefore police should not be able to write you a ticket based solely on a POP radar reading. Because of this we believe POP radar is not something you should worry about and POP radar detection is not something you should look for in a radar detector. In fact, most radar detectors that detect POP radar have the POP radar detection turned off by default as it just increased the false alerts you can receive with any radar detector.
It helps if you ever plan on driving long distances, you don’t need Ku band enabled since that is only in Europe.
thank you
