Ok here's the deal:

After further testing, having POP enabled or disabled can actually improve or inhibit your radar detector's ability: Guys of LIDAR - Radar Detector Test - August 2007
(I personally run my V1 with POP off and X-off b/c x isn't used here and it has shown to improve sensitivity, according to the website posted earlier)

That site has some great stuff, for those interested in radar detectors or laser jammers you should check it out.

As for POP, in most states that are not SUPPOSED to cite you a ticket from a POP reading, but as you all may know, cops may not always follow that guideline.

As for the video of the cop encounter, he posted that video for us too in another forum (www.radardetector.net). I believe (not sure) the case is still pending and he has another good video of him making an alleged illegal u-turn and getting pulled over for it. His detector going off in the video is a Beltronics RX-65.

Also it's pretty important to run with a laser jammer too. Even the V1 will get you busted by laser pretty quickly, it'll detect it, but that's pretty much it telling you to pull over and get your registration ready.
