Sports Master

Model No.: FX200

Congratulations on your purchase of the Fox Sports’ and

Excalibur Electronics’ Fox Sports Sports Master!

Whether you want to know which tennis pro won the

1972 French Open or who is the all-time NFL leader in punt

returns, your Fox Sports Sports Master will help you settle almost

any debate.

The Fox Sports Sports Master is easy to use, but be sure to use it

safely. Before starting, please read this manual thoroughly, espe-

cially noting safety, care and battery information. Keep this man-

ual for reference.

The legendary King Arthur brandished a

magic sword, Excalibur, from which we

take our company name. With this unique

weapon in his hands, he could not be vanquished.

Although Excalibur Electronics, Inc.

can’t claim the magical secrets of

Merlin, King Arthur’s court wizard,

sometimes our patented technology

may make it seem as if we could. The

Fox Sports Sports Master is another

unmatched innovation of Excalibur

Electronics.

We make you think.

known sports, like the U.S.

International Game Fish Organ-

ization.

sports, and you will see two more

choices:
