    Stalker option

    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.

    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
    I have not seen any jam codes on my Stalker unit

    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
