Default LEO at a K band speed sign shooting KA

There are 2 K band speed signs at the bottom of a hill near my girl friends house, I finally locked them out few weeks ago.
Yesterday as I was approaching I had gotten a strong KA alert followed by my 9500I stating “Multiple frequencies detected” I immediately slowed down to the posted 25mph. As I was going down the hill a bunch of cars started getting backed up behind me because they were not anywhere near the speed limit. Just at the bottom of the hill there was the LEO running C/O KA and now all the cars behind me had backed way off.
It was a nice save for me and the other cars behind me, but it got me to thinking. Do LEO’s have any idea that we know what band they are shooting and know when they are shooting a different frequency? My 9500I tells me when there is an additional & different frequency, besides the different tone like other RD’s

My guess is ether they think they are being slick to catch RD users or they are just trying to enforce the speed sign/area better. My bet is the latter.

So did the 9500i actually say,"Multiple frequencies detected"? If it did, that's really cool and something I haven't noticed as of yet. Nice save btw. I hope this happens to me while I am using my 9500i. With my luck, it won't happen until I am using another one of my rd's.

It will only say "multiple frequency's detected" if you use expert mode, which is what i use exclusively. I find it to alert better in High Risk, areas and the display is more stealthy because of the small readout in expert mode.

Hers an excerpt from my TrueLock tricks:
Expert mode with Voice Alert on: Unlike other modes you will receive a verbal notification of "Multiple frequencies detected" when receiving an additional and different frequency. The advantage in using this with TrueLock is if you’re at a previously locked out point and you receive a new/different signal the 9500I will bypass the lock out and show all of the current signals it is receiving with a verbal verification of "Multiple frequencies detected". If you can deal with the visually small read out in Expert Mode and react on the 1st beep or 2 I feel it’s the best mode to use all the time on the 9500I.
