we experienced recurring but somewhat inconsistent false finishes in a recent race
we use an S4 with an optocoupler between hill wiring and timer
there seemed to be some correlation between our announcer [who was sitting right at the S4] getting excited about certain racers approaching the finish and raising his voice significantly, and false finishes occuring when the racer was too close to the finish to clear the false in time-has anyone experienced anything similar? or could a cell phone that's on cause such problems?
