[QUOTE="jrs, post: 383442, member: 24554"] Well, since you feel that way I'll keep on natering about with this for a bit. Got into a discussion on the subject with a co-worker who has vast experience in time functions of networks and operating systems (was involved in nuclear reactors and petro-cracking tower ops). In his opinion only a certain extinct propretary real-time operating system is deterministic enough to do the job. I think that there must be a cost effective way to get there from here using a digital network. I was just reading some of the Sierra discussion about their instrumentation and see that they are much more accurate than that, and end up at about +/- 2% on the BC. Fron what I gather they have a very long wire between crono screens, and a custom cronograph ... but what the don't have is 1,000 yards. I suppose a plain old analog radio could substitue for the long wire, but I'm more interested in finding a way to use a digital network. I'm going to keep working on it and I'll put a post here when I get an idea I think might work. If anyone has an idea or time to look on-line for a device that can get time of flight accurately and post back here I'll see what I can do to integrate it with what I already have. jrs [/QUOTE]
