[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 383385, member: 4191"] Ray, Hope I was able to help and it does sound like it did. I find the second chrono invaluable for validating the quality of my chrono data, prior to evaluating ES/SD from the velocity data. It's not uncommon to get some bad recorded velocities off a chrono and if a guy isn't able to identify the blooper(s) data then it's possible to dismiss a potentially low ES/SD load and move on in the search for greener grass. I'm envious of your 35P, and it sounds like it's a good one. I use an Oehler 33 and a PACT Pro. Of the two, the Oehler 33 is the more reliable. In good lighting conditions I generally have very few problems. In fading light the Oehler 33 keeps on trucking while the PACT starts to puke out on me. Just yesterday I received some bogus data off the PACT and a few 'no readings' as well. The lighting conditions were a bit less than favorable. I use a 6' spacing with my Oehler and a 5' 6" spacing with the PACT skyscreens. You're correct in that the larger the spacing, the less compromised the data should be due to slight errors in the exact distance of skyscreen separation. A six (6) foot skyscreen rail is about the longest I find still convenient for transportation purposes. Enjoy that Oehler! [/QUOTE]
