What Ka bands should I be running in CA?

I presume HiFi doesn't announce frequencies? That's too bad -- I wish it would at least announce "Ka 5"

It does not. I really need that AL Display so I can figure out what band I'm detecting.

I've twice detected Ka on N 1st Street in San Jose between 880 and Gish. I haven't a clue what band it's detecting, and it's been only one blip then gone. I'm going to try to enable Ka wideband on my STiR+ and see if it detects a stronger signal next time I drive through there.

That's not far from where I live. I might swing by and investigate. I would not be surprised if that area has a Ka speed sign

Both times, right here: https://www.google.com/maps/@37.3610...3i2v4-TGhg!2e0

Northbound, near the Holiday Inn.

Drove through here after work with wideband Ka enabled on my STiR+. Went on both sides of N 1st, making two U-turns. Picked up nothing.

Likely scatter from CHP either on Hwy 880 or 101 nearby or the courthouse which is near there. CHP unit going to-from the courthouse leaving his unit on. See it all the time in Santa Cruz.
