But Rip, I do like the "Multiple signals detected" voice alert of expert mode, man that is cool. And, w/ the voice on, getting a false POP alert on the 9500i is the best. It's the first rd I have had that says "POP Alert". By far the best POP alert on voice of all rd's even if it's a false alarm. For all who have to drive w/ POP off, they at least have to turn it on every once in a while w/ the 9500i just to hear that voice alert. PRICELESS AND A GOOD LAUGH FOR ALL TO LISTEN TO ON THE 9500i.
I completely agree with the use of spec mode, best way to be sure not to lock out a LEO.
The reason i use Expert mode to lock out a location is there may be another false the 9500I is locking out with out notifying you. In spec mode it will only show the strongest priority alert. TrueLock uses Expert mode technology to accumulatively lock out threats as well.

Usually in a "High Risk" area i use spec mode to see the frequency, than expert mode to be sure there aren't any hidden falses.
Totally agree with the usefulness and fun the voice alerts are. Got to love the POP alert and "Multiple signals detected", i freaked the first time i herd it.
