You can still buy first hand AMB ones from some places! The newer 'Harrys' are Mylaps, but the older ones are AMB's regardless of what the company is called! BBK even still refer to the timing equipment as AMBrc even if its now sold by Mylaps.....

'Harrys' do have one simple but very useful advantage over MRT's - the transponder number is printed on the case. With MRT's that vital number is on an easily lost piece of paper.


One thing I would add - don't bother looking at 2nd hand ones on ebay. Sometimes they come up on Oople at good prices, but all the ones I've seen on ebay go for virtually the same as you can get a new one!
