The Judgeman sounds like the system sounds just like the one that we've used in Houston area for the last few years. Don Roccafort (Sp) built the system in 2009 or 10, Squidman, Oldbob, and Fisher have used it at Texas City, and Alvin. Remember? The only thing Don didn't use was the pilots "Score board", and Stan Douglas had that.

Was that one wireless? I made the display for Stan and he did a great job upgrading the JudgeTimer program to work wired to the computer via a modified Logitech controller to connect the buttons from the timers. At that time it was designed for two pole racing. Has it been extended to include the judges (P123) for three pole?

Here are the pictures Hank sent me. It is a lot more compact than I had imagined! Very nice and easily portable by just about anyone..

I'm building up a system to use for two-pole racing It will have 6" LEDs display in front of the pilot/caller that will give lap and cut info. An airhorn will sound on any cut. Master switch to start. It is PC based with Input/Outputs running through industrial grade OPTO relays. See Lap counter console Pic below.
Right now it is independent of the scoring system but will greatly enhance race operations.
I'm just awaiting a few parts and hope to field test middle of March at the Waco field.

Very nice Steve.
I think Don's system the cut judges were wireless, and it was a 2 pole set up.
