UPDATE: On the way home last night, same road I drive every day with no K band at all, I come up on a CHP on the side of the road. Line of cars in front of me. About 100 yards before I get to him, I get a low K alert (2 of 5 bars) for a moment and it's gone. Then as I go by him, I get full alert, all bars, instantly, then it's gone. Officer was also standing at edge of road (we shared a look that I wouldn't characterize as warm). A little wierd.

Seems the CHP may be testing instant-on with K band. I couldn't see if the ociffer standing next to the road was holding the radar unit or not, like he'd be gunning folks so the dude in the black-n-white can give chase.

Regardless, I'm now taking K alerts as seriously as Ka .

Beware.
