Mark,
  That's interesting information about using 1/200th.  I typically had used
1/125th according to the manual page 114.  The sync speed for canon
speedlights is 1/250th, but for studio strobes it's 1/125th.
  I recently purchased some pocket wizards.  Their manual stated 1/250th.  I
tried it this week with success.  I'm not sure what it would be any
different using the radio trigger versus using a 550EX to trigger the
strobes.  I'm using profoto monolights.
