[PUP] Chart list, answer found

Shortly after sending my request about CA charts I finally composed a google
search that got me the result I was looking for.  Comparing the current CD
list of charts to the one I got from JARogers they are an exact match.  So
now my question becomes:

 

Does Maptech make any changes or enhancements to the age old raster charts
that have been unchanged in dozens of years?  Some of these charts are
marked as No Datum in Coastal Explorer, requiring you to select them for
use, acknowledging the datum isn't there.  Could Maptech go into those
charts and update the Datum?  I don't know enough about how the raster
images is updated to know if it's even possible.  Again, I have no problem
paying Maptech $500 for replacement cartography, but only if they have done
something to earn my money.  I'd feel like  a chump if I sent them the money
to find they are identical.  Oh, I guess the better question is when they
convert them to BSB4 did they do anything to revalidate the charts?  Perhaps
there is a chart update index someplace on their web site I can consult?
