Depends on the radar detector you are using. A dash mounted unit will not pick it up, but if you use a K40 with front and rear radars, the rear will pick up a false K band.

I have the K-40. it will pick up the rear K band with the LCA. you can program the K band in the rear to be turned off, problem solved. Most of the K band are garage doors etc, the Ka and laser will still be on.
