Re: DIY Wireless timing system

Wireless equipment supplier is now at carymart.com.

The S1UD-DC09 receiver unit is quite good as it will run with 9volt batteries so you use a much smaller housing.

CB1000 transmitters are still used.

Re: who wants to help expand slalom racing?

We added a "Penny Slalom" or "Plastic-Class" side-show to our last race of 2012, and to a ditch race half way through the year. It created a great vibe on the day, and introduced slalom to a new generation, of kids and proud parents. You had to be there to experience the support that the grown-up sk...

With any wireless system, there will be a delay between crossing the tape, getting the signal out, receiving the signal, decoding the signal and then closing the relay, to stop the clock, that does not exist in a cable system.
