AMB/MYLAPS ABOUT TO SHAFT US????

[mark christopher]

ok so im reading between the lines here

with them giving such high discount on your old amb and "clone" im guessing the new decoders, are not compatable with the old bugs......meaning any club buying the "new" decoder wont be able to count laps for those with "old" transponders
im sure this post will get confirmation either way!!

if im right then this STINKS

Look for the 'white paper' on mylaps site. If you read it, you will see that the new transponders are backwards compatible with RC2 and 3 decoders, obviously working with RC4 decoders. RC3 Decoders can be upgraded to RC4 standard.
Likewise, the RC4 decoder will read RC2 standard PT's. The ones we have now.

The link is on this page.. Enjoy the read..

i hope thats correct if so relax again!!

One thing - I haven't seen anywhere where it say's the trade in has to be working. It's a steal for those who have broken PT's. The deal isn't really that great for those who have perfect order PT's. But rest assured, if mine were to go faulty, it would be worth trading in.

To update - unfortunately, your PT (AMB or Clone) has to be in working order to trade.

The trade in is to get the 'old' pt numbers back i think.

rob from bbk will be testing the new decoder/transponders at Rug Racers on Sunday
