I like Kustom Radars better, but look what I found about the Decatur Genesis II (I admit that I did not know that their DSP was this good! Gonna ask one of the Lamar County guys if it REALLY works this good... this is from a sales brochure.)

Fast Done Right

The Genesis II Select offers an option for FASTER tracking. When a Decatur Electronics radar is placed into the Fast mode, it will display and track the speed of the vehicle that is the second strongest target -- as long as that target is going faster than the primary target. The full Doppler audio is also generated for the Fast target and the operator can lock a Fast target just as easily as the primary target speed can be locked. This is the only method of clocking fast targets that meets all of the evidentiary rules demanded by the courts.


Emphasis mine, and I'm not so sure about that claim about the courts.... laws and interpretations vary a LOT around the country.


Oh, and wait here.... A "SELECT" model? Never seen one. This is something new in the last few years.
