Can the radar be tuned by the officer?
Not unless the officer possesses the appropriate FCC license permitting him to make those adjustments. The regular street officer can’t adjust the radar for accuracy but can verify the unit’s accuracy via certain tests. If the radar is found to be in error the unit should be repaired by a competent technician. The officer can make certain adjustments to the radar in the field but these adjustments do not alter the internal workings of the unit itself. These adjustments will be for things like audio level, range sensitivity, etc.
