Bob's Adventures in DCC

I’m always intrigued by these electrical discusssions, but they do remind me of a cartoon for some reason… (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-foot-in-mouth.gif)

Fifty Bucks? Ouch. Are you driving motors or ‘amplifying’ DCC logic level outs?

Building out districts, actually. There has been some work with DCC++ to get the base stations to be smart about districts, but it doesnt look like its plug and play yet.

Though at $50 a board, I think Dave Bodnar’s approach is a bit better. Its definitely cheaper.

Ah yes, I keep forgetting you are doing a track power thing.

I probably need to get out more (http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-smile.gif)

That’s damn funny (the cartoon), I worked on ISDN, and know what a BRI analyzer is… ha ha… his mom called his bluff about what level engineer he was…
