Guest Owen Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 ETS is by far the quickest, and better still you will not get those mistakes that happen when people are asked to call out numbers and write them down. You also will not get illegible handwritting. And the clock reading times are slashed as well. I also like the fact that I have a record of everything.

REDCHEQHEN Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 One of our club members is an inspector at race marking in another fed - and he reckons ETS is so slow - having to print three copies of race sheet for each member takes an age and that rubbering the birds and writing down the numbers in the book is quicker - as you can have more than one table on the go for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompey Mick Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 One of our club members is an inspector at race marking in another fed - and he reckons ETS is so slow - having to print three copies of race sheet for each member takes an age and that rubbering the birds and writing down the numbers in the book is quicker - as you can have more than one table on the go for them Last year we had an ink jet printer which was slow, so we printed one master copy and copied the other two on our photocopier to save time at the marking table. This year we invested in a Brother laser printer and the copies fly out. There is absolutely no contest between ETS and rubbering. With ETS, marking is so much better, you can always get volunteers to man the scanner, there's no responsibility now, like there was with manual marking. I would have thought that larger organisations will invest in multiple ETS markers as the need increases. There is also the added security when marking for Nationals and Classics as the ETS clock is set when the birds are marked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
