thanks!!
Hello, yes I producing cables for my Lap timing decoders, they are 100% compatible with AMB/Mylaps. You need high quality 75 Ohm coaxial cable, high quality 75 Ohm BNC connector (not 50 Ohm!) and you must make balun. Balun I'm winding with 0.4mm cable 8:20 turns. After winding allways need performs tests. Not all baluns works from first time, sometimes it's need cut cable end and make new balun, as when you cover all with epoxy resin (for water and dust proof ) balun slightly changes their parameters and not reaches needed parameters (too low hits). I have referent cable - and all produced new cables/baluns compare with this cable.
Sorry for my English. Andrius
