I think in depends on the area and whether it is local PD or WA State Patrol. My detection experience has been that WSP is running Ka Band radar (at least on the I90 corridor). I've notice that they tend to run with it wide open if they're are fishing, so you can detect them from a mile away (or more). K Band around here is extremely noise and should probably be ignored unless you travel out in the styx somewhere where local PD is running ancient radar guns. I haven't gotten any valid laser pings but a number of false positives in heavy traffic.

Running a V1 with mirrortaps BTW.
