[. . . ] POPTM Mode is a feature on some newer radar guns operating on K and Ka bands. When the gun is in POPTM Mode and activated, a brief burst of energy, less that 1/15 of a second, is transmitted and the vehicle's speed is quickly acquired. A detector without POPTM Mode detection capability cannot respond to this brief transmission. This detector has the power to report this new gun where other detectors cannot!
