LOL. I think that was the fastest Valentine 1 purchase I've seen. Aren't you concerned about what the arrows are for, or what they do?????

LOL I returned mine after using it for several weeks, it was nothing like I wanted.
I picked up a Passport 9500ix and I am very happy so far with it.

It took you several weeks to determine it was NOTHING like you wanted? If it took you that long to figure out you didnt like it, you may need to re-evaluate what exactly you're looking to get out of a radar. I have a feeling the Passport may not provide you the gratification you're looking for. Either way good luck!

He was sold by Passport since the get go. But he cracked under pressure when every V1 owner in here voiced their opinions in his thread. Now he's quietly gone back to Passport for good.
