  2. Check the web site today Update now on to 2.86 letters arrived today???????????????
  3. Rings will not be accepted Birds missed on result Unikon Manager 2008 is not correct that is why there are updates Loft no not accepted Error <44> Every club up here is having birds rejected One member had 60+ birds to his club and got 14 on ets he printed out an assignment sheet with all birds on it I could go on and on but what is the use the union has passed it and wont look at the problems I have assigned one guy 75 birds when he puts his clock into his system and syncronises it all birds are wiped off Birds from previous years are being thrown out
  4. It's cause the system does not work Unions should step in and ban the system till they get it working PROPERLY This is disgraceful after what we have paid. Been using Unikon since 1999 and getting sick of it No other clock manufacturer would get away with this

  9. Kingslea One Loft Race with a difference, the idea was given to me by a member who asked me to run a one loft race, which was immediately refused, but after some discussion with other fanciers this is what we put together. First we looked at the problems: Disease and sick birds Shipping costs and reliability Getting all birds in on time Numbers and handling them Breaking the birds to a new loft Are there to many one loft races Most are run to make a profit to the organisers We decided to eliminate all the above by: Breeding our own Only have 50 birds. Only 40 in the race.9 spare 1 Raffle bird All owned by me therefore no complication with licences No cost involved as I would have this amount of young birds anyway I will be training the birds as I would with my young birds No cost for feeding them I pay for the food as I would with my young birds Prize money 40 x £50 = £2000 When the idea was set out to local pigeon fanciers we received sponsorship this means we will pay out £2100 per syndicate of 40 participants We have 7 races with the Federation /club We will pay £50 for the first bird home in each race 7 x £50 = £350 Last race 196 mls race no 8 1st Prize £1000 2nd Prize £500 3rd Prize £250 Total prize money £2100 per syndicate of 40 This is an idea every Federation / club can copy this means the money is being raised by participants and won by participants. The money is paid up front so is guaranteed The Raffle bird will pay all hidden cost i.e. printing, postage, and any other items required. The raffle bird will have a paid entry into the race for the winner. I will publish photographs later of some of the birds, all are on darkness system. Ian McKay
