Default I Need a New Radar Detector! Help!

I just purchased a 2004 Mystichrome cobra, I love the way the car looks. I liked it so much that the fact is I can't even drive a stick. I am in the process of learning before I do any modifications to the car.

Well, today I realized I need a radar detector. I currently have 3 other vehicles, 2 Acura's and a Dodge Truck. While driving back from Mississippi I got stopped by a State Trooper and he gave me a Warning to slow down I was 15 mph over the limit. I currently own a "Rocky Mountain Radar" it said that it scrambles the cops signals but, after today I am not so sure it really works.
Any suggestions???

Thanks.

Do you know where I can purchase one?

Is it a detector or a scrambler?
