Just got my V1 today. Too bad my car is in the shop getting some mods put on otherwise I'd hardwire it. Anyways, what mode works best for you guys? I have it on advanced logic mode but its seems to pick up on a lot of useless bogeys. Any thoughts or tricks for this thing?

I see you live in So Cal just like me. Read the following:

I also turned option "J" DOWN (off), as POP is not used in California (when you go to Vegas, turn it back on!) I strayed from the instructions and left K in rear at ON instead of off in case a city cop sneaks up my rear.

I leave mine in BIG L mode for the street and A mode for longer drives on the freeway. Not many falses.

Who makes V1? I want a detector in my new 550 and not sure what to get. How much is it? Where did you guys mount it, difficult to do on your own?

Hmmmm, I ahve it on advanced Logic too and it seems to be beeping quite frequently with no visual signs of the bogeys. Since i live in Los Angeles, should I be using to different mode?
