It's kind of an intriguing thought, though. Tie it in with an electronic scorebook system, or the scoreboard system. The scorekeeper/scoreboard operator does the data entry so the R/U doesn't have to. Provide a suitable display for each official. The Palm hanging from the pole won't do it. Palms are too fragile (and I keep busting mine) and too small to read at any distance. It would have to be something larger, and sturdier.
