The engineer Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Posted April 22, 2011 It seems everything in this sport costs a fortune! The club has a Unikon system that we can use which has saved me money which is great. I think i may have to wait and see how i get on with it. Before investing in the pocket clock. Unless i can get one cheap.
PIGEON_MAN Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 Pocket clocks are now £220,just over 12 months ago they were £99.
The engineer Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Posted April 22, 2011 £220 no wonder the sport is dying. I suppose i can do with out it.

The engineer Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Posted April 23, 2011 WELL JUST AFTER GETTING INTO THE SPORT AND BUYING MMY FIRST HOUSE AT THE RIPE OLD AGE OF 23 ETS IS JUST TO MUCH FOR ME THIS YEAR PPL SAYIN FOR A UNIKON SYSTEM IM TALKING 600 POUNDS EASY PLUS A POCKET CLOCK\!!!!! WTF IS THE POCKET CLOCK FORI have seen them advertised for £325 new this is with 1 pad. The pocket clock is an extra £220. From what i can gather the pocket clock comes off the main unit this then allows you to take this to the club when entering birds. If while you are away a bird enters it will still be timed by the main unit this then updates the pocket clock ideal i would imagine for long races. There is also a time difference between the ETS and the older clocks using rubber rings 17 secs they recon at our club when they tried it also you don't need to catch the birds. I suppose i should think myself lucky the club has these base units and loans them out for £15 a year which goes towards the battery change. Its a shame every club has not got these as not needing the expense of a clock is really helpful when newly starting.So far i have spend around £700 and i think this is probably a cheap start up. With the birds actually not costing me anything thanks to the generosity of the fanciers i have contacted. I reckon i will be spending around another £300 as i still need baskets etcHope the wife doesn't see this post!!!!!!!!!!!!! Otherwise i may be having fried testicles for my breakfast (my own) LOL
