    Default Time to buy another database subscription.

    My database subscription ran out back in March, but since there haven't been many, if any, updates for my areas around me i haven't resubscribed yet. Well, its that vacationing time of year again so i decided i should probably get caught back up.

    I cant decide whether or not i want the 1 year subscription or the 3. Its only $10 more for 3 years, but i just cant decide which i wanna buy. Someone tell me what to do lol.

    Also, maybe EscortRep can help me out here, i know theres a $50 version that comes with USB cable n warranty, but i have no use for that as i have a newer 9500ix and plenty of cables. There gonna be any changes to whats offered in this $50 package soon? Like a super-cup instead of a USB cable or a tune up (not that i need either, im just curious)?

    Edit: BTW goin on a trip tomorrow, so i was probably going to buy whichever very soon.

    Wow, that is a lot of driving but if you anything like myself I love to drive. I was driving from Seattle to N.C. and I enjoy it. I'm really from N.C. but I move to Washington State with the military. When you get back from your trip let us know how your ix do if you use it?

    I think im probably just going to go with the one year, but as i was getting ready to check out, theres a shipping cost? Are they actually mailing me a code or can they not just email it to me? If im gonna have to wait for it in the mail, ill just buy it later.

    Edit: Still no answer?

    Well, anyway, im updating from the road. Currently rolling about 80 along 26 East. Im on my laptop, using my Pre as a wifi modem. Couple cop encounters. Had an odd laser false with the 9500ix in NC. Im running my GF's C65 at the same time currently and its actually been beating the 9500 regularly on K band by a second or two (with a few long differences on false alerts but nothing like that for a real cop). Yea, i know they could be affecting each other, im just posting what im observing. Ka has been about the same but the C65 does usually beep RIGHT before the 9500 goes off. Its in USA mode.

    Running the 9500 in spec and the C65 in threat. Been working pretty well. Just got lit up w Ka and K form two diff sources lol. Had one cop pace my rabbit and pull them over (undercover), and now anothers riding ahead of me running C/O Ka 34.7, so its slowed us down a bit.

    Its an Escort detector. Haven't been able to reply, haven't had an internet connection besides my phone.

    Got pulled over once. My GF's car had a headlight go out... We were cruising, picked a a Ka threat from close to 3/4 a mile away with the C65 (wasnt running the 9500ix). Was a very impressive detection. It was dark, we go around a slight curve and up a hill looking for the source. Then, these motorcycle lights just come on out of the blackness. We weren't speeding, but we both knew she was about to get pulled bc of the light lol.

    Was both of our first experiences with a moto LEO. He was very prompt, and we were on our way again, no troubles. Was very surprised that he was just sitting right off the road without any lights on though. Seemed kind of dangerous. Nothing else to report, but the C65 is definitely been an impressive detector for the sub 200 dollar price.

    Sorry for the delay responding

    I haven't heard anything about the 3 year Gold Package changing. I seriously doubt that it will.

    Call us instead of ordering online to order a Defender subscription, you should get the shipping fee waived. We email you the subscription keycode the same day that your order processes and also mail you the keycode card.

    This is great, you guys should offer it for all subscriptions.
