V1 Multanova Range


Recommended Posts

Today I tested the V1 (v1.8, firmware v3.7.8.9) against a Multanova 6F, inside a parked car. It was placed behind a bus stop on my right, invisible visually, right until I passed it. The V1 alerted me a good 200 meters before I reached the radar site, that was from the back. From the front the range was slightly over 400 meters, with lamp posts being the only obstacles in the way. Ich war sehr überrascht :lol:

Hi,

 

the detecting range of an RD is depending on the enviroment. Things like weather, daytime and reflections are factors you have to deal with. The most important factor is, the reflection quality of the area in which the radartrap is located. In urban areas, parking cars on the side of the road t are quite good to reflect the signals. On federal roads or freeways the crash barriers are good sources for reflections too. But it's impossible to compare two different scenarios.

 

For the V1, it's common to have a detecting range between 200 and 500 meters on KA-Band, but as I said before its depending on the scenario.

I agree, it was an urban area with housing on both sides of the road, also with lots of cars. I have another observation concerning a Ramet radar system (Ka), performing surveillance 50 meters before a tunnel on an expressway. There´s a viaduct with concrete barriers on both sides (no metal) and then another 150 meters or so before you reach the radar. The road forms a right-hand turn and a good 200 (maybe 250) meters before the radar position it comes into view and only then does the V1 sound a Ka alert. And the weather has no effect on it.

Well, you can compare radarwaves with lightwaves when it comes to reflections. Some surfaces like concrete have a better reflection quality than trees or bushes. Fog or high humidity also affect the range of radarwaves but you are right, these effects are quite little.

On folowing picture you will see "Modified" BEL remote and Escort X50 with "extra" antena.

Range in this modification and with vertical polarisation extendes up to 500m !!.

Jungs, was ist los?

So kommen keine neuen Mitglieder, wenn ihr mit allen so umgeht. Ich kann nicht erkennen, wo er seine Geräte "advertised" hat oder auf irgend einem niedrigen Niveau geantwortet hat.

Wieso kann man sich unter Bastlern nicht einfach austauschen und so neue Tricks und Ideen sammeln?

 

Also ich kanns nicht verstehen. Scheint eine typisch deutsche Art zu sein - da geht es schon in amerikanischen Radar-Warner Foren anders zu - aber OK, bitte nich gleich bannen :vogelzeig:

Die massive Werbung wurde gelöscht, Reste findest du im Forum. Natürlich liebe ich es mich mit anderen Leuten zum Thema Technik auszutauschen, das solltest du bereits gemerkt haben. Aber um was ging es hier im Beitrag? Um Selbstbau? Um Modifikationen? Außerdem wer hier Spam verbreitet muss sich nicht wundern wenn er etwas herbere Kritik bekommt. Entweder kann er damit umgehen oder nicht. Just my 50 cents...

@kompressor:

 

If you are not someone of the inner circle of this forum

nobody is interested in innovation and making things better.

 

Muss es nicht eher heissen:

 

Everyone except the inner circle of this forum is interested in innovation and making things better .

 

(damit Deine versteckte Kritik mal zur Geltung kommt) :vogelzeig::blink::cop01:

Da hier offenkundig keine interessanten Informationen mehr zu erwarten sind, mache ich hier mal dicht.

 

Lob und/oder Kritik per PM an mich.
