In Voice Alert mode you will first hear several tones, then a voice message announcing the type of signal detected, followed by more tones. In both Voice Alert and Tone Alert modes, a distinctly different alert tone is used for each type of signal detected (including separate tones for each laser signal). For X, K, Ka and Ku band radar signals, the tones will repeat faster as you approach the signal source. [. . . ] Additional patents may be listed inside the product or pending.
