Another tip RSL, get the time from the GAME CLOCK on change in possession. That is all you need to resolve 10-second violations, shot clock discrepencies, etc.
I don't think one can do this in NCAA -- and possibly NF either. (I recall a past NCAA interprtation that specifically stated an official's error in counting seconds could not be resolved by time elapsed on the game clock, unless a new interpretation has been issued in recent years).
