The Valentine1 has a separate remote display that doesn't require digging into the actual unit. Remounting the V1 is completely out of the question. I e-mailed the V1 designer and he says opening the unit will eliminate the shielding and vastly reduce the efficiacy of the whole detector. Remoting the antennas (there are several) -- will cause problems because the code in the box depends on timing characteristics that will be affected by adding length to the wires.

However, remoting the display is not an issue since the V1 uses ordinary phone line cable to send serial bits to light up the remote display...
