I just got my Valentine 1 radar detector and I can get the thing to shut up

Whats the best way to set this thing up so Im not getting so many false warnings and beeping noises in my car????

Go here for more programming options
http://valentine1.com/lab/MikesLabRpt3.asp

also refer to it when reading this response:

Ok, so every option that has to do with the "K-band Automute" is as follows:

* To enable the "K false suppression", the user must program the "7","b","C","d","E","F" and "G"features as in previous versions.

print this out also and bring it to your v1...

1.Go to programming mode in the v1.
2.go to option 7, then make sure the arrow is pointed DOWN. (it is pointed UP as default from VR)
3.go to option b next, make sure arrow is pointed DOWN.
4.go to option C next, make sure arrow is pointed UP.
5.go to option d next, make sure arrow is pointed UP.
6.go to option E next, make sure arrow is pointed UP (default).
7.go to option F next, make sure arrow is pointed UP (default).
8.go to option G, make sure arrow is pointed DOWN.

options b,C,d in that combination of arrows gives you 30 seconds K band automute time.

which means when you get a weak K band signal which is less than 4 dots, in BIG L mode you will not see it period (until its bigger than 4 dots).
in little L mode you will see it and hear it at MUTED volume (i keep my MUTE volume turned all the way down so i personally dont hear it) until 30 seconds is up the you will hear it as normal. in A mode, the v1 will work like you never programmed it period. when on the open highway and away from annoying K band falses, put your v1 in A mode. When in the city, you can put your v1 in Big L mode or little-L mode. remember BIG L mode doesnt show the muted alert or even sound to it. Little L mode will show it for the 30sec's and play it on mute volume then you will hear it.
Regular volume is the knob. Mute volume is the lever behind the knob.

also if you have those pesky traffic monitors that monitor speed and if the roads are congested, turn on the t feature. This is off by default. It basically turns off k band POP and it will be noise free on the freeway where those things blast every 30 seconds or so.

Maybe its LA but I literally can be sitting behind a cop and nothing goes off.

But driving down an emty city street. The thing goes crazy.

Logics modes are better and not annoying but I'm not getting much heads up on the cops hunting for my Horse Power Taxes

^if the cop isnt shooting radar.....the V1 doesnt have anything to alarm you about...
