Spectre has always claimed that it had "cloaking" technology, including the older version. Trust me, Spectre can be detected. V1 and STi can pick it up just fine. I picked it up from at least 1/4 mile away, maybe longer, and it was NOT a weak alert!

Just got in on this thread, it's interesting that Spectre's claims are similar to RD manufacture claims.

That's because the Spectre is nothing more than a reworked cheap POS RD.
IIRC, the brand name of the original RD was Quintezz.
