    Default Picked Up my 9500ix from Escort today

    I then drove from the Escort office to the Columbus airport. Lots of LEOs, but unfortunately, they were all running Ultralytes or sitting on the side with a customer, but none of them were running any radar. Don't speed on I-71 without any jammers, that's for sure.

    The only thing that caught my attention this whole trip, was that the announcement for RLCs is different on the 9500ix, I think she said "Redlight Camera Ahead", whereas my 9500ci says, "Approaching your marked location". Obviously, the 9500ix's alert is better. I hope this is updateable with a firmware flash.

    For you 9500ix users, here is my 9500ci's RLC alert.

    Nice, I hope they do up date that.

    Did you ever fully test if the CI in Expert mode does the multiple frequency announcement?

    I have never gotten this alert, but I haven't been home hardly at all in the last couple of weeks. I'm at the airport now actually, heading home. I get in at 9:45 tonight, but I have a 6:45 flight out in the morning to Seattle. The woman wanted to go to Seattle for her birthday, and because I have basically lost all say so, we're going to Seattle. YAY!

    yes, you can purchase RDs there, but it looks like more like a warehouse type facility with a small front desk

    Don't they have a factory store? I assume they do not discount?

    They had a grand total of three RDs displayed, a 9500i, an X50 and, get this, a Solo S2. That's it. They were not in a display case or anything, they were just displayed in their normal cases, sitting on the front counter.

    Geesh. They're gonna milk that Solo2 for all it's worth. FWIW, I really like the look of the Solo2. Too bad it's detection is Cobra quality.
