    Look at this video from OpenRoad over at RDF. Segmentation makes a difference.


    RDR was on during the second run, but off during the first run. With RDR on, the signal needs to be found twice in order to trigger an alert; with RDR off, it'll alert if it just sees it once. So all of those alerts way back from the sign were caused by the Redline seeing the signal once, but it obviously never saw it again on the second time through. The signal comes and goes so quickly, it isn't there on the second sweep. So consider what would happen if it just doesn't see the signal at all because it's not sweeping 34.7 during the small amount of time that there's a distant 34.7 signal that's coming through. Most of the performance gain was probably due to RDR being switched off, but the segmentation helps too.

    Why sweep unnecessary bands? You only need 34.7 in most parts of CA. Just don't forget to turn it on when leaving the state, or when driving up to Tahoe.
