You get YOUR radio back, along with instructions how to update s/w using the Whistler EZScan s/w. DO NOT USE the GRE s/w!Did this in my PSR800 & PRO668 already.

So if I send in my PSR-800 for upgrade, what do I get back?  The site 
doesn't make that clear.

They asked me if it was under warranty, and when I said 'no, they told me something about not having the parts to do the repairs, and even if they did, the parts wouldn't be compatible or something like that.  So, I think I have crossed Whistler off of my list for any future purchases.
