Clocking many pigeons on one antenna
If it is necessary to clock many pigeons on one antenna pad at the same time, it is advisable
to install the antenna pad as follows.
On the landing board, you should build an area which is lower, under which the antenna pad
is then installed. The pigeons then step onto the antenna pad one by one and not all at the
same time and as a result the registration of the birds is optimised.
Another method giving similar results is to build a raised area. This raised area is also
needed if you have a landing board made from zinc, as metal causes interference to the
antenna.
The raised area should be a maximum 10cm higher than the base, and the board a maximum
thickness of 15mm.
You may find it more convenient to purchase a specially designed entrance.
If you choose this solution we recommend the Futura (designed by Bricon and produced by the
companies Demster and Haspeslagh in Belgium).
Attention : It is recommended that care is taken to ensure that the positioning of the
antenna complies fully with the rules and regulations of the relevant governing body.
