    What's the most ridiculous ALP feature request you can think of?

    For me, it would be customizable sounds in the voice pack. Upload your own audio files to alpupdate.com and have it spit out a customized voice pack of background sounds to use for the HiFi Control Set.

    For example, when powering up: http://www.trekcore.com/audio/other/power_up1_clean.mp3
    Defense mode active: http://www.trekcore.com/audio/brig/forcefield_on.mp3
    Kill-before-jam: http://www.trekcore.com/audio/brig/forcefield_off.mp3
    Laser alert: http://www.trekcore.com/audio/redale...red_alert3.mp3
    Continuing to jam gun: http://www.trekcore.com/audio/weapon...weapons_ep.mp3
    When hitting the JTK button: http://www.trekcore.com/audio/cloaki...ak_romulan.mp3

    Just to be clear: I do NOT actually want AL to implement this. You guys have better things to do
    But if this existed, I think my friends would get a kick out of it.

    Think of all the trekkies and gamers that would buy the system just for the sound effects

    Your promise? So in the future when we eventually give you this you promise to be as happy as a clam and stop complaining about it?

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    I promise, I'll be the first in line to get the new app that does that

    BTW, when are you going to get the ci head that'll integrate into the ALPs??

    It can do it now if you connect it and use the Sti-R Plus settings. After some testing it appears the 9500CI head already supported RDR/BS but the CPU for some reason was not allowing it. After we found this out we asked Kasher what Escort updated in his system and sure enough they only updated the CPU which confirmed what we were seeing.

    Like everyone else, ECMExpert will be happy as a clam for about a week, then will find something else to complain about

    WWBG (What Would Be Great) is a system where all countermeasures sync up, and get recorded that you can later download to Google Maps with timestamps, etc.

    Radar hits with frequency, laser hits by gun type, all location and timestamped, add to that how fast you were driving at the time.
    Go ahead, make my day.

    Those sounds are actually amazing and I'd love those.

    You can do custom sounds with YaV1 to get it to actually say things like "34.7" or "35.5" during a Ka alert. Very useful and I love that feature. It'd be great to have something similar for ALP alerts if desired.

    I like it saying "Thirty four seven" instead of "thirty four point seven" and being able to choose the exact voices are a really nice touch.
