I have a better idea.

When you go to popular restaurants they give you a pager (vibrator) that tells you your table is ready.

Each team is given one and a desiginated person on each team is in charge. When you are called your pager (vibrator) goes off.

What do you think?

Last year, we tried using a paging system similar to those that they have at some restaurants...when we tested it in the pit with our machine powered up and running on tether, the radio signal from the transmitter actually caused the drive wheels to start spinning...so you'd have to be careful to get a system that wouldn't interfere...

RNets were less robust than this year's system (imho)

Has anyone had ANY problems with their radio connection this year?

We have no zero problems.

I am really glad to say goodbye to those RNets.

While they were probably good for what some applications, they were not particularly suited to controlling lots of robots in one location.

We are much happier with the Innovation First system.

Anyway, to address your point, I would be surprised to find that a local page network had any effect on the radios we are using unless they pager's sender unit was using the exact same frequency band AND the sender unit was nearer to the field than the sender units for the game field. Even then, I would not expect anything other than a loss of signal to occur, certainly not an insane robot.

This occured in the pits at nationals, without the RNets being used...it seemed to effect the robot's electrical system directly(we were running on tether). As soon as we hit the 'Send' button, the drive wheels on our machine started spinning for a couple seconds...

We got a faulty radio modem in our controls....robot was only having a one way convo. That's our only gripes with it, and over all, I find them to be much superior to the RNets.

At MKHS we had a faulty robot radio. And this happend on saturday before the 'bots were due. But thanks to the generosity of team 59, Syntheon Corporation/ eAc Corporation & Florida International University & Miami Coral Park Senior High School & Carrollton High School ,giving us a spare we were able to practice. Thanks
