Sorry to dash your hopes, but a friend of mine did something like the
transponder you described.  It sent back a legal 54 MPH every time his
car was being radar watched.  My friend did more than taht, he had a few
variable settings, ie. 02 MPH, 189 MPH, etc. He would love going down a
certain street in my town where the radar happy patrolmen hang out, and
give them a taste of their own medicine.

My friend never did anything for money, just for gags. I'm also sure that
he didnt think of the idea...
