The last speeding ticket I got, my radar emitted a single beep and then silence. I was headed North on 99 just south of Yuba City, early in the morning, and the CHP was coming in the opposite direction. As soon as he passed I saw his brakelights come on in my rearview and he whipped a U-turn.

After all the paperwork was complete I asked him how he got me. He explained that they run around with their radar in passive, stand-by mode and that, with a single push of a button, can get an instant read on your speed.

The 9500ix is still a great unit and has saved me on many occasions.
