I've been contemplating the Compustar 2 way paging alarm since my brother recently had one installed in his RSX.
http://www.compustar.org/products/2WSS.html
It has a range of 6000 feet with the Spread spectrum model.
However, some folks in the FL forum have installed the comparable Ultrastart system and say good things about it. I don't know what the range of this one is but it does have the 2 way just like the Marksman.
Both the Marksman and the Ultrastart can be found here. They are also substantially less expensive than the Compustar.

Anyone have any opinions on which is better, and why? Gimme some ideas. 
Thanks.

Picked up my car today and all i can is that
i love the Compustar alarm. The range is awsome !!
The remote LCD display is amazing and it works like a charm.
No problems at all. I will post some pictures of the remote
and where i placed the antenna to receive and send. I also
had a custom mold made to go across the top pillar that
now encases a nav system and Valentine One. New head
unit, speakers, amp in trunk. Will get pictures up over
the weekend. I did away with the visors. I thought they
were useless anyway.

Any complaints with the Ultrastart?
