Pole mounted K band radar units in Ventura County (Pics)

[Lucozade17]

Hello,

Good to be back haven't been on here in a while!

It would be great if anyone has any info on these things they are very annoying. I came across them late last year so they are fairly new. I get full blasts of K-band and the RX65 reads them as POP and flashes K...... They are mounted on the top of call box poles every other one I guess. They are extremely annoying, and my guess is that they monitor the speed of traffic. I have tried to lock them all out on the 9500i but every now and then one slips through. Can anyone shine some light on these?

I got a flat tire and ended up right in front of one. The tow trucks lights help get a good picture.

If it's on the call boxes in remote locations, then perhaps it's microwave communications.

Wow, these things are annoying. I don't see how you drive through them daily (if so). Do you detect them from far back?

I do not drive through them daily only when I drive through Ventura on the way to LA. I have almost locked them all out of the 9500i but they seem to drift in and out of different frequencies. They are low powered, and the RX65 alerts me to K-band pop at full strength. I have come to an almost certain conclusion that they monitor traffic. They shoot down both the NB and SB sides of the highway, and stop once I get through Ventura County.
