100% correct Robbie, hat's off to Billy Whyte ;)

Yep those doos have done well

Think so John, or possibly further off the coast, 3 just dropped as we speak, again out of North east and another one, now up to 34/41

Think they went on to the sea to get away from any showers or rain possibly

My velocity is in the mid 1600's, but know of 1 member who flies 6 mins further than me who is in at 10.13am. returns now 30/41,, birds are all fresh, no sign of being through any amount of rain. sorry to hear that willie, how are the others in your fed gettin on?

yes that's right Willie 11 minutes past ten,, think the doos were out on the sea,, all came out of North east to me.

Timed at 10.11 from Ripon 234 miles from 6 am lib 17/41 so far all arriving out of North east, looks like their coming in from sea

Thanks for that Tommy. Spoke to Unikon rep tonight, I have to send the members printout to Unikon,, he said as you have stated that his base station was powered down for more than 5 mins.. his set times and strike times were correct but because I had to enter his times manually into our results software I mistakenly put in the wrong master timer time and had his clcok an hour out...oops :( What concerened me was that when I first put his clock into the club base it said no rings arrived and when we went back to his loft and put the pocket clock into his own base the arrival times of his birds were there, then when I tried it in the club base once more the birds were all there but had all been given an arrival time of Wed 00-00-00hrs I then printed a race progress which gave the birds the arrival times that were on his own base but with SC4 on the printout. The week before this same members clock had the code LCM against each arrival but the club member who sees to this guys clock when he is offshore is adamant that he put the pocket clock in the base locked up his loft and left, not returning untill 30 minutes after the birds had arrived and the pocket clock had never been removed from the base at all. Lets hope Unikon can figure this one out as my brain is fried

Thanks for that Tommy R, does this mean his times could be incorrect??

Had a problem with a members Unikon professional clock when striking off yesterdays race. When I put his clock into the club base station it came up on screen "marked 61 followed by no rings arrived. The member concerned is offshore at the moment but the person who went out to take his clock to the club said that there were 40 birds on his own base station recorded from the race. We then decided to go back to his loft to check and sure enough there were 40 rings arrived all from yesterdays race. I then went back to the club and put his pocket clock in the club base and the 40 birds all appeared on the base display but all had been given an arrival time of Wed 00-00-00 hrs I then printed a race progress which gave each birds their correct times but with a code SC 4. When I tried to transfer his times to our eastcoast software results programme it wouldn't work it only transferred his set time and strike time which were correct. I then added his times manually but it gave his birds an incorrect velocity saying that there was a variation on his clock...really stumped with this one :blink: Anyone had anything like this happen?? or anyone got Dougie Balds phone number?

cheers sapper, they fairly tumbled in today, was 2 mins behind winner, finished 5,6 and 9th club but well pleased with their overrall performance

58/58 from Arniston 124 miles 43 home within 10 mins of first bird
