Invisible to VG-2
VG-2, also called the radar detector
detector,
is an interceptor
used by officers to identify vehicles equipped with radar
detectors in instances and locations where they are not legal
(such as in vehicles over 10,000 pounds or in Virginia and
Washington D.C.). The VG-2 interceptor works by detecting
emissions generated by radar detectors within a certain
frequency range. The SENSORO ALPHA/ALPHA+ operates
on a frequency outside of this range. So it’s
invisible
to —
and therefore undetectable by — VG-2.
Detection alerts
The SENSORO ALPHA/ALPHA+ notifies you of the type of
signal it receives (X, K, Ka, laser, etc.) by using different audio
and visual alerts for each signal.
X, K, or Ka alerts
When an X-, K-, or Ka-band radar signal is detected, the radar
band type and the signal strength are displayed together. The
radar audio alert is activated continuously for the duration
of the signal. Four indicators illuminate sequentially on the
display to indicate signal strength. Numeric digits, ranging
from 1 to 9, also indicate signal strength (1 is weakest, 9 is
strongest). Here is an example:

Laser alert
When a laser signal is detected, the laser audio alert is activated
for about three seconds, and the display shows the following:
