PIGEON_MAN Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 Think it depends on your club etc on how it works,there was a thread on the hours of darkness some weeks ago but I.m not sure on what the final outcome was,it might be that your best bet would be to take the clock out at 10 and then put in back in at 4,because if a bird came say at 10.25 you could clock it at 4 the next morning and gain 25 minutes.
Guest bigda Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 just to confuse the matter more, the hours of darkness is 11 clock pm - 4.30 am in Scotland, for the lanarkshire birds that is at Ypres, it was the same for eastbourne
Guest IB Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 Provided you aren't draining a battery, I don't see any point in switching ets system off, doesn't matter what the agreed hours of darkness are, nobody told the the pigeon about it, and if it homes in the hod and before midnight, it is still a day bird, no matter what time it gets.
