These thinks are a nightmare if you are running a race meeting number clashes drivers don,t know what number they are on.

Get an amb one. Rumour has it the new amb decoders may not be compatable with the mrt clones.

Apex models stock mrt ones or go direct to their web site

They're not that much of a problem, you can test them to find out the number prior to the meeting starting or if someone comes up as an unknown you can sort it out then

Surely they wouldn't be compatible with the old amb ones either?
(I own both amb and mrt so am doubly interested!)

I read a old thread about this before I bought mine.... (Will try n find it)

I think the likelyhood of getting 2 the same is quite rare also it's only a problem if there in the same class/heat. Also you get 10 numbers so you can just change it..

If anyone who has actually come across a problem with duplicate numbers please correct me else it's speculation

We have encountered this once at our club in the last 2 years or so. All we had to do was change to the next number on 1 PT.

You get 11 numbers in total so you would need 12 cars in the same heat all running MRT transponders before you would have a clash that you couldn't fix with the above solution - how likely is that going to be?!

tosh, or all non harry amb transponders would not work, unless of course amb are making it back to a monopoly!!

We have the latest decoders at York and all AMB types and MRT work with no problems.

hi

just for information i was one of mrt drivers when the ptx was realesed the one that sits in my car is number two that was ever made its not a clone version as this was before they were altered its a standard 20 number ptx i chose setting 8 double flash in 2007 (6099608) i have only had one clash in all that time and this was this year at the f 3 4 5 finals and to be fair i was only there cos i dont race reginals and got an entry but the point im making it is extreamly unlikly a clash will accure and if it does change the number.

and as for buying them buy direct from mrt the service is very good.

if this is causing a problem just put the 20 numbers into your system as ptx 1 to 20 you can then allocate it to the driver for the event.

this is what andy oldman done for the stcc bak in 2007/2008

The problem we have with nitro we have 80+ drivers at club meeting and the issue comes up when we try and bump a driver to the next final.
We have on our system 120+ drivers with these half the drivers dont check thier numbers so this wastes time on race days (we have 580 drivers on system total).
If everyone had a different number you have no problems.
AMB are going to do clones soon model identifcation.
Also people have sold clones so we have on our system 15 pts with same number.
This does need looking at I can see why people want to save £30 but it causes us PAIN on race days.
BRCA rules should sate AMB PTs only IMO.
