I would suggest the issue lies squarely with MRT. They sold a transponder which was "supposed" to be a clone of the original AMB PT. Now, the AMB PT continues to work on all the AMB/MyLaps decoders, and yet the MRT doesn't.
So it's not a very good 'clone' is it?
If it was doing what it was supposed to be doing - it replicating the same signal as the AMB units, then it would work fine on the new decoder and there would be no issues for anyone.

'Clone' is a bad choice of word to describe the MRT, there's no way you could confuse it with an AMB/Mylaps. It's just a different device that does the same job as a Mylaps. No one claims the Kyosho RB5 or Losi 22 are 'clones' or 'copies' of the B4 just because they do the same things the B4 does.
From what I have read up on this the problem isn't that the MRTs are transmitting a different signal, it's that the signal strength isn't as strong in the MRTs so when the decoder is updated it for some reason it reduces the sensitivity of the decoder so they don't pick up the weaker signal. Has someone not connected with Mylaps actually tried testing MRTs with an RC4 decoder to see if it is possible to tune it to get it to work?
