There are 10 types of people in this world; those who understand the
binary numbering system and those who don't.
There's no place like 127.0.0.1.
ASCII a silly question, get a silly ANSI.
On a clear disk you can seek forever.

: They don't need software for that, I've waited until about 2 secs to go
: once just by monitoring when the auction is due to end. Once I won in
: this manner and someone else had bid exactly the same price as me but
: about 1 second too late so my bid won it. Auctions are fun!
i used the refresh button to monitor the last 5 mins and with 8 seconds to
go i thought i was safe. bah! lost a bargain, was gonna get a £170spektrum
package for £112. I was the only biddger for most of the time too.

I always use www.bidnip.com when "bidding" from eBay.
Usualy with either a 3 or 5 sec margin.
Works just OK for me...

I assume your talking about a new DX3 because Modelsport UK has them listed
for only £20 more. If your talking about a used DX3 then check out ebay
here in Oz, there is one with 12 hours left for about £76.

i imagine the shipping to uk might be a tad high.
is modelsport uk an ebay shop or a proper shop? i looked at the ebay one and
it is £169. thats rrp. dms-racing.com is selling it for £154.95. two
channel systems are cheaper.

£169 comes with two receivers
http://www.modelsport.co.uk/?CallFunction=ShowSpecification&ItemID=23356
£132 only has the one receiver
Most of those links above that work, have the bonus receiver all for around
the £170 price. So realistically the one for £132 isn't much of a saving
