Do you find that the lack of a directional signal indicator ala the Valentine on the Bel to be a hindrance? I spend an awful lot of time in New York glued to 5 mph over the speed limit because my detector has signaled what looks like a positive contact somewhere, but I don't know if its in front or behind! |

However I know it does bother some people. I have a friend who has both a Bel and a V1 running in parallel to give him the best of both worlds and both are integrated into his Corvette HUD. It's an awesome setup. BTW -I wonder if your GPS connection issues are accentuated by the building density in manhattan. I remember even navigation units can take 5-10 mins to lock on in Manhattan.

One other thing to note. valentine research's patent on arrows expired in April 2011, so we should expect new detectors with arrows on the market soon.

Another thing I didn't know. Thanks stealth.pilot. Sounds like it might be a good idea to wait to make any decisions.
