Ok, lets simplify it then. There's not much you can do if they MOVE the mobile radar units (there's also ones that use laser to clock you too). Trapster may get some of them on the GPS, BUT only if you've updated. You can also use Trapster on a BB or the iPhone and that updates instantly. If your stated concern is redlight cameras (stationary) and stationary speed cameras, then your ONLY real option is either a remote 9500 ci or Stir+ or a Redline with a SC55 (the Redline for Lidar and Radar and the SC55 for Redlight and Speed Cameras (the SC55 is updateable weekly on USB through Escort's Detector Tools and use's the Trinity Database to tell you where the RLCs and the Speed cameras are located.

Or, you can get a new V-1 (yes, upgrades coming next week) and run Trapster and that'll give you the RLCs and Speed Cameras too, BUT won't give you stealth to the Spectre.

YOU can also drive to Hotlanta and get Cartronics (yes, they are in Georgia) and get them to install a Ci or a Stir+ and that'll do the trick too.
