PIGEON_MAN

Couldnt help but notice in the new rules regarding ETS that you can only have 4 birds in your club or federation result for inland races, I wouldnt be to happy if I was lucky enough to have more birds in the fed result only to be told they dont count because you use ETS.How do members of the NWHU who have ETS feel about this.

Bit late for April fool.

This is the one I told you about Bandit,it was Mark who put me onto this one,also if you get in touch with Printerbase they will deliver within 24 hours.

I would allways advise anyone to get the same system that the club allready uses,it makes it so much easier for the secretary or whoever is responsable for doing the computer side of things.

Gave you all the info.before about a printer and who to get in touch with.

Why dont you want it to happen,some fanciers on here will tell you birds are better off choosing there own mates.

Can remember the name but not much about them I think they were distance pigeons.

Perhaps a insert like the one you can get for the T3 might be a good idea.

Might be a bit dodgy using a STB without a thimble or any sought of modification,the rubber on its own could easily jam up the clock.

If your talking about the plastic ones no problem at all,just place it in the chamber and push it in with a pen or something until it clicks into place.

I hope you dont mind me commenting on the above as I know nothing of SHU rules but,If I didnt resign from my fed at the AGM I would be liable for the following years subscriptions,so they could suspend me as a defaulter,it seems that the biggest problem here was that your club held its AGM after the Feds.This may be a warning to other clubs to make sure they hold their club AGM,s before their Feds as this problem will arise again.

I use the OKI B2400,was given a list by Mark Palmer as to which was suitable and also where to get them,go to WWW.PRINTERBASE.CO.UK they have a good selection but this one was the smallest and cheapest.

It would be a very good idea if you had the same system then because the club allready as everything set up for Unikon and it makes it a lot easier for the sec.or whoever does the computer side of it.Dont think though that because he as ETS thats the reason he,s winning every week.

I,m not sure what he actually does,I,ve got his landline number Ill try and ring him later.

I believe Pompey Mick wrote something on this a few weeks ago,I,m sure he said he uses two computers,then any changes he makes at the club he then transfers onto his home one via memory stick.

Agree 100% about Mark he is allways there to help out if you have a problem,took a members clock up to him the other week which was playing up a bit,he had a quick look tryed something then said no bother and gave me a brand new one for the guy,bit differant than Unikon rang them week last monday the girl on the phone said the guy I wanted would ring me straight back,you guessed it STILL WAITING.

Whats he bred for you since you,ve had him.

I use Bricon and find it to be very good,but then again so is Unikon,guess its really down to what you fancy.

Best thing is check with your club to see if they are already using a system.

There are a lot of people out there that would of seen this as a serious thread.

Nice looking loft but cant see any ventalation at all,how long have you kept birds in there.

Why do fanciers even think about using stuff thats not for pigeons when there are plenty of things on the market that are made for them.

That doesn,t sound good at all,be all the same if the bird had been marked for a race no problems,then comes back ring wont register and as usual its your first bird pooled to the hilt,must say though havn,t heard of anyone else having problems like this.

Think your posting this on the wrong site Ben as he,s no longer on here.

Normally when I allocate rings to members birds I sometimes get one or two that play up,you dont mention that you have had your ring allocated yet,I think when you do your sec.or whoever does them will pick up any thats not working properly.
