Pop Radar Guns

ThePop mode Radar Gun is a single pulse Doppler radar that is a feature
ofa K and Ka (Bee III Ka radar gun) band Instant-On radar gun. It uses a
singleshort time pulse to measure the target vehicle’s speed. Despite the fact
thatthe short, single pulse makes the unit ver y sensitive to officer hand and
vehiclemovement and reduces the range of the gun in Pop mode to 50% of
itsrange in Continuous Wave mode, this feature is added in an attempt to
makethe radar gun invisible to Radar Detectors.
Althoughyour detector can sense Pop signals beyond the effective range
ofPop radar guns, there will be a signal to sense only if a gun is triggered.
Inaddition, the Pop mode receiver section is more prone to false alerts
becauseof its extra sensitivity. This is especially so in urban areas. As a
result,you should consider using the Pop Detect mode only in highway
andrural situations. Cobra Electronics has included a user selectable on
oroff Pop Detect mode.
