SFR punching system

svendp Posted: 19 January 2015, 10:32 AM   The IOF Council has decided to grant provisional approval for the use of SFR Punching System in Foot Orienteering World Ranking Events. http://www.sportsystem.ru/component/attachments/download/21 http://orienteering.org/sfr-punching-system-provisionally-approved-for-footo-world-ranking-events/   svendp Posted: 19 January 2015, 10:44 AM   It should of course read 'punching', but what has happened to the edit function?   fraser Posted: 20 January 2015, 3:10 AM   If you login (from the Events or Photos section) then the edit icon will appear to edit your post. I have fixed the title for you now though. Has anyone used this system? What does a complete set end up costing?   svendp Posted: 20 January 2015, 7:29 AM   It has been used in Russia for several major events. The link below will answer all your questions including cost. http://www.sportsystem.ru/component/attachments/download/21   fraser Posted: 20 January 2015, 8:56 AM   Thanks Svend. I was meaning more if any readers of this website have used this system in an event and can let us know what it was like to use. I didn't see a cost for the software component but on a closer read of the pdf I see it is freeware. So based on the pricing it is, very roughly, about NZ$85 per control unit and NZ$5 per punch card "petal". That sounds quite reasonable and worth considering as an option for Upper Clutha.
