Re: KAMRI N-scale Layout DCC Conversion

We have received our repair/updated booster back from Digitrax!

At our 3rd Sunday gathering, our n-scale DCC guru aka Phil Brooks and your truely actually managed to hook up the booster and the new radio receiver on our layout. And... it worked!!! We were officially running DCC equipped engines in all directions and mainlines. There were no signs of any leaking smoke on any part of the layout or DCC components.

So now we need to start planning. One of the first things I'm suggesting is we need a DCC engine register so we can identify who's engines, that are targeted for running on our layout, are programed to which address code. This register will be kept at the clubhouse for reference so anyone bringing an engine can determine what address is available and can enter that choice in the book. Or they can reprogram to a new number and enter it.

It's a starting point!
