How would you recommend to a school that they update their scoreboard to show tenths of a second?

For those scoreboards that don't show tenths of a second, how do you know it's 0.3 seconds or less for last second shot attempts?

If it was that important to me, I'd dig into my pocket and pay for the new scoreboard. Otherwise, I'd STFU.

I strongly suspect the scoreboard is fine. The problem is with the console and whoever set it up that night. At a recent game, I noticed the scoreboard did not show 1/10s in the final minute of the JV game. As the varsity R, I wanted to have the 1/10s working so I spoke to the AD and to the timer between games, but they could not get it to work.

A few days later, I was at another school with the identical console and had the timer show me how to set the 1/10s. I sent the AD an email with the directions.
