shugf2003 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 of course they have you have to catch every bird take rubber off put in thimble and time in, ets just let them trap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK W F Posted February 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 you can set 2 clocks but only use the nominated clock ,i know what your saying alan as i get one bird going to one loft and the next to another so your into one loft then across garden and into the next with the one clock would deffo be better with a t3 in each shed as with ets you dont have to move your ars of the seat and there timed into 4 lofts or more yer Rab but my understanding in the UNC there is no nominated clock use both surely thats the fairest way JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stb- Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 yer Rab but my understanding in the UNC there is no nominated clock use both surely thats the fairest way JMO it would be deffo as the ets has major advantage to manual timming especially if birds entering loft then you need to go in and chase them about to get ring of and thats without comming out and going to another loft to time the next bird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walterboswell59 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 i have ets and would not have a problem with someone using two clocks as long as both are returned after the race for checking even if only one is used but i fail to see the advantage it would be to a single fanciar when i was using my stb i took the clock to where the bird was not the other way round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shugf2003 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 obviously ets is faster but is it the same you can time your first four birds to one clock and your next five to your second clock but you dont have to produce it if your second five are rubbish lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stb- Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 You're obviously talking about more than one person clocking otherwise you just take the clock with you or wear the harness for the T3syes you have to take the clock from loft to loft to time as your only allowed to use one clok here with ets you dont need to move yer ars of the seat , boring :emoticon-0140-rofl: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK W F Posted February 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 You're obviously talking about more than one person clocking otherwise you just take the clock with you or wear the harness for the T3swhy not have 2 timing surely its no difference to multi pads think some guys just want ever advantage going JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walterboswell59 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 whats the best and cheapest ets ?they are all good m8 but you get the same make as your club mates are using or you give your club a problem so best to check with club first thats my advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJWa Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 why not have 2 timing surely its no difference to multi pads think some guys just want ever advantage going JMO alan correct me if im wrong but in the nationals can you not use 2 clocksfor eg if you go to the clockstation with 1 clock to get birds recorded can someone else not clock in any other birds that arrive into a second clock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blaz Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 ets v,s standard stb clock ets wins hands down. with some fanciers racing ets and some with manual clocks.when it is a close race then the fancier with ets wins.so making for a false result in club fed and national flying.(as it was the ets that made bird win position fact) if races in past where on a level playing field say all with ets or manual clocks.the club fed and national results would be altered fact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gulkie Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 of course they have you have to catch every bird take rubber off put in thimble and time in, ets just let them trapSo if ets has a unfair disadvantage over clocks does that mean thatYoung men/women have an unfair advantage over the old where doWe draw the line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
