My rewatching of Dragon Ball via La Tele Paraguay reminded me that Pilaf found a way to disable the Dragon Radar's ability to find a Dragon Ball. I know its pointless at this point but Toriyama had NEVER been shy about reusing plots.

Probably because finding the dragon balls stopped being a focal point after the Red Ribbon saga. Gathering the dragon balls became a means to an end rather than the center of the story.
