Does anyone know the specific trade off in sensitivity when selecting the optimal Stalker setting? I'll be in CO for a week or two this summer, so no jam codes are an absolute necessity, but so is maximum sensitivity and range given that I'll be riding in an unfamiliar area.

Go with Max. It won't throw jam codes.

In all our testings we had no issues with Max, I would not run it any other way.

I personally have experience with the Stalker, Go Max every time, or expect PT's

Agree - never seen any jam codes on my Stalker running A 5.6 SUP firmware with my ALP set at max power

Are their any jammers that makes the 5.6 stalker show jam codes?

Stalker LZ-1 Version 1

An E04 code is very common to see on the version 1 Stalkers, even when targeting vehicles without jammers. This gun has the most "jam code false alerts" of any gun used in the US. This is possibly caused by light sources such as running lights or sunlight reflections. If an officer using one of these guns sees an E04, this isn't probably isn't suspicious by itself, since he probably sees it all the time.

Stalker LZ-1 Version 2

Stalker revised their guns, and on version 2 guns an E04 is very rare to see. No jammer that we have used this gun against triggers an E04. Most likely, this can only be triggered by "brute force" jammers such as the older Lidatek LE-10.

I'm fair sure that is correct, lower versions in the 3.X produce more jam codes

It still has a knack in detecting weak spots in rear installs, that the LRB won't find.
