Hi Ray, no trouble at all it's the easiest way, you ask a question I answer it!
Yes we can clone a house transponder no problem. It has to be working, as in not broken. We just have to power it up and read the number ID data out.
We have a separate form for clubs to use, the form is at
www.rclaps.com we get asked for sets of 10 or 20 house transponders to have i-PT cloned versions made up. Some clubs prefer to have 10 i-PT's made and keep the other 10 as house transponders. If the batteries need replacing in the house transponders we can also do this as well if required.
