Help with identifying decoder
Posted by Packer on Monday, June 15, 2009 11:17 PM

An engine I got a bit a go had a sound decoder installed in it. I'm looking to see what type it is so I can reset it so it has a bell.

On the top on the largest chip, it says:
ST
275?020
70?C-NH
03?0007-f

The ? are a result of a premanent marker, which was done before I got the engine. I'm guessing it's a soudtraxx of some sort, for a 2nd gen EMD. The board is an Atlas-style light board.

Any guesses from anyone?

Wants: 1. high-quality, sound equipped, SD40-2s, C636s, C30-7s, and F-units in BN. As for ones that don't cost an arm and a leg, that's out of the question....

2. An end to the limited-production and other crap that makes models harder to get and more expensive.

Place it on your programming track and read CV8.

With the resulting number in hand, go here to cross-reference the number to the manufacturer ....
