Guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 tartanboy do yir sums theres no way a t3 is dearer i do agree its old hat and i dont think people are scared i no im certanly not.
tartanboy Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 fifeking,total cost as advertised on page17 of this weeks homing world is £605.00 plus £10 carriage unikon cost £525 and it can do five races and a training toss,you never answered my question about the rubber missing.if your no scared why did you no stay and fly in the shu.easier competition else where?
Guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 no we went to better compatition and where majority counts not minority and to give people in the club we left a chance to win somthing to keep them intrested
dandydoo Posted January 19, 2006 Report Posted January 19, 2006 Fife King if you are a member of the RPRA your Clock should it not be three way tested scrutinised by other regions at the start of the season and after its taken off kept on the Clubs premises does this happen in you Club or do you just do what you like?
dandydoo Posted January 19, 2006 Report Posted January 19, 2006 I can remember away back nobody could afford a clock and we had to run to the post office only well off people had a clock ...was that fair did everyone leave the sport cos a few folk had ..no they didn't Did those having their own clock not have an unfasir advantage
fifestay Posted January 19, 2006 Report Posted January 19, 2006 FK , Do you have better competition in your new Club. How many members does you entire organisation have.Are you saying you will leave the Sport.or your Dad will if ETS is accepted
Guest Posted January 19, 2006 Report Posted January 19, 2006 I just dont get what the problem anyone has with ETS, as Ive posted B4, its just another way of clocking at the end of the day. It doesnt make your birds come home faster, and surely if you cant afford it no one is forcing everyone to get it. I can and would get it if we were allowed to use it in our fed, but I wouldnt expect it to improve my pigeons, it would just take the stress of not being their for my birds when we have holdovers and I have to go to work and I would be able to log what time all the birds came in from every race.
PIGEON_MAN Posted January 19, 2006 Report Posted January 19, 2006 GREAT POSTING SBELBIN TOTALLY AGREE I TO OFTEN HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS AS TO WEATHER OR NOT I WILL BE AT HOME WHEN THE BIRDS ARRIVE AS I WORK FOR MYSELF.WHY SOME PEOPLE HAVE THIS CRAZY IDEA THAT YOU HAVE AN ADVANTAGE OVER THEM IF YOU HAVE THE E.T.S. I DO NOT KNOW.I WOULD CERTAINLY GET IT ALSO IF I CAN AFFORD IT.
Guest Posted January 19, 2006 Report Posted January 19, 2006 fifestay the question about would my dad leave the sport the answer is no . i could run to the post office and still beet most of the pigeon fanciers in the club and fed we left check yir results f.s and tell me im wrong so it wouldnt matter to us if it in or out all ive told you is my opinion on it.
Guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 I just dont get the problem Edited the quote on your post intentionally, Sbelbin. Hope you don't mind. You and I are talking about ETS. I HAVEN'T A SCOOBIE WHAT THE OTHERS ARE TALKING ABOUT. But in Scotland, some would call it pure mince. Time to move on lads ... perhaps into adulthood & the 21st century?
carl Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 SLUGMUNKY WHERE CAN I BUY THE BENZING ETS The low cost timing system from a name you can trust Complete Starter Pack includes all of the following: EXPRESS Unit with Special English Software to Boddy and Ridewood specification. Installation Box for attaching 'clock' to loft/sputnik on race day. Adapter for attaching up to 6 additional antennae (clocking tunnels) Superb for Training as well as racing Up to 3 races can be timed simultaneously Power Supply UK voltage Single Clocking Tunnel Bob Wires Screws (for installing the tunnel to your loft) English Manual Comprehensive Installation Guide This handy electronic device is the ideal unit to start with. It's easy to handle and extremely user friendly. The electronic clocking system EXPRESS with its integrated antenna (clocking tunnel) is the ideal combination of efficiency, high tech and low price. The EXPRESS can manage up to 250 pigeons. EXPRESS can be expanded as your needs change - If one clocking tunnel is not enough you can attach up to a further SIX additional single trap anntenae. An exchangeable battery guarantees its ability to continue clocking/functioning, even if the mains power fails. The EXPRESS is 100% compatible with its bigger brother, the ATIS TOP. Stores up to 3 races Price £ 249.00 Electronic Timing Systems (ETS) are (at the time of going to press) not allowed under RPRA (and other union) ruling. They can under RPRA ruling, at present, be used only for training purposes. Only £250 now that is cheaper than a t3 is it not..Only downside its mains only so no good to me on a allotment.

Guest Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 AS YOU CAN SEE THE BENZING ETS HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED FOR USE BY THE SHU. THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY THE SHU ARE UNIKON, VICTORY, AND TauRIS
MsPigeon Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 Our club went with Unikon. Been useing it for two seasons now. We all love it. Even the ones that drug their feet and didn't want to change all love it now too. I am race secretary and it was a lot of new stuff to learn and there is still a few bugs to work out useing it with our race results program. But I am very satisfied. They also have great people to call for assistance. My only complaint is the cost of the chip bands. But I just heard that someone is makeing a universal band that will take the place of both club band and chip band. Has anyone heard of such a thing and the details like cost and where to buy? Carol

Guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 From what I have seen of the Benzing Express it's not very user friendly, we spent the extra cash and bought The Atis Top. We are now using Unikon in Oregon and find it a far better system
MsPigeon Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 Check under Mealybar's 'Ring Innovation' for details. Where at Bruno?????
Henrik Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 NEHU will approve ETS in 2007 as will the RPRA wots the walkers gonna do then?
PC Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 yeh good idea but i would like to know just how hack proof it is ! We all know there have been numerouse abuses in the sport over the years unfortunatly & a life ban has failed 2 deter in the past. The real question is if we go to E T S's how can the average club hope 2 have the knowledge to catch someone if they find a way of hacking this system ??
tartanboy Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Just a thought on how would we know if the ets systems were being hacked into,give out the wrong lib time that would catch them out even those that would try it with conventianal clocks.i think they would have to be really really clever to do it.

Bruno there are still a lot of dummy tits still lying around the prams and the same people who reside in them don't know its the 21st century,also unlike you i am getting good info from people regarding the ets systems. :K)

Good information or not ... NOBODY is going to listen ... everybody's just switched channels, see, we've kinda outgrown that Primary 1 Punch & Judy stuff..
Henrik Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 SNFC will allow ETS to be used from 2007 season.
