YaV1 runs on an Android phone (only Android) and uses BT to communicate with the V1.
The phone doesn't even need to be activated with a carrier or have a data package. Updates can be done over WiFi wherever. The phone needs BT, WiFi and run a GPS app, and the faster the phone and newer the Android app the better, but it doesn't need to be all that fancy. Guys are using long obsolete phones to run YaV1, or unactivated, cheap pay-as-you-go phones paired with V1s through the V1 BT dongle.
I'm still doing the research. I was at a BB today and downloaded YaV1 to a demo phone so I could see what it looked like. I only saw the YaV1 demo since it couldn't pair with a V1, obviously.

Anyone here running YaV1??

Ya, that combo seems to be extremely popular on RDForum. For good reason, you have amazing GPS lockouts, and crazy speed/range with the custom sweeps so it rivals the Redline for range. Plus you get the arrows. If you have an android to use, it's almost a no brainer UNLESS you drive somewhere that you need the detector to be invisible. Then V1 is no longer an option.
