HIGHWAY VS CITY MODE
Uniden’s R3 radar detector operates in two different frequency (X, K, and Ka band)
sensitivity modes - Highway and City. Highway mode is the most sensitive, with
maximum detection ranges while on the highway or open road. City is on the lower
end of the detection scale for city driving. City mode reduce sensitivity so that false
signals (such as from automatic door openers) are filtered out.
Under factory default conditions (X band = off on all modes, K and Ka bands = on),
the band sensitivities are:
• Highway: X band off; K and Ka band full sensitivity.
• City: X band off and K band sensitivity reduced; Ka band full sensitivity.
• Advanced: Adjust the sensitivity level for each band.
You can adjust the sensitivility levels of each band.
