POP
Radar Detector Test
MPH developed POP mode for use in their police radar guns several years ago in attempt to offer a radar gun that would defeat all radar detectors.
MPH claims the POP mode is so fast its transmissions cannot be detected by radar detectors. However, many radar detector companies have now developed methods to detect the 67 ms mode.
POP mode may not be used in issuing citations, as the speed cannot be locked and no droppler tone is generated, a requirement for establishing a "vehicle tracking history". Furthermore POP is only operational in the stationary mode.
MPH offers three POP mode radar guns, the Bee III at Ka 33.8 GHz, the Bee III Enforcer K at 24.150 and the hand held Z-25 at 24.150 GHz.
For this test, SML placed at the 1000' away from the police radar gun and the radar detectors were placed into POP mode.
Each detector was shot three times, at each of the MPH radar guns, while driving toward the police officer at 30 mph.
All the detectors reported an alert, however not all notified correctly as being a "POP detection"
However the Valentine 1 and the Whistler 690 reported all nine hits as being POP, followed by the Whistler Pro 78 and the Cobra DXRSR7 with 6 out of 9 or at 67%.
The Cheetah System consisted of an Escort 8500 X50 radar detector and the Remote Mirror System
