Glad to see you are well Uncle Jim. Keep us informed. We love the videos......
Thank you, I will
Cool stuff. Looking forward to seeing how it works out. 🌴👍👍😎🌴
Well Dave the Lapcounter is taking much longer to do than we thought. Stay tuned though! Thanks for your nice comment my friend. Please go back and share Ryans Lunch King videos with your friends.
Good to see you back with a video. hope you're doing ok. thanks for sharing, missed you !
Thank you! You too!
excellent, jimmy...can hardly wait to see what is displayed and documented next...keep 'em coming!
Thanks, will do!
Good old fashioned analog electrons from back in my day. Great stuff. Most people I know do not eve know what a scope looks like.
So true Mr. McGuire! Tech changes before our eyes. Thanks for your nice comment my friend. Please go back and share Ryans Lunch King videos with your friends.
Looks like you guys have solved the problem (or more like worked out a solution). I had what might be a different problem with a detector system that sent a pulse when a carrier went past a detector.
The problem was the detection pulse was so short that the system could not register it. We installed some pulse extenders that kept the signal for up to five seconds (we tuned it to two). Although it was a 24 volt system it could probably be applied to your problem as you run on half wave (for each car) and by using two extenders per track wired forward pulse and reverse pulse for the supply sine wave. So the first car would forward bias one extender which would prolong the signal so that the recording system could measure it and since the other extender on the same track would be reverse biased it would not send a pulse until the car of the opposite polarity came over the detection zone. You would just need to make the detection zones long enough so that a car could not cross the zone in less than one cycle. However, it looks like you guys have it cracked.
By the way, good to see you are still doing magic!
Thanks for sharing all your thoughts Konrad. And, thanks for your nice comment my friend. Please go back and share Ryans Lunch King videos with your friends.
