I have just tried a batch of NCE decoders and I must say I like them. I used there send in a old burnt up decoder from other manufacturers option and get a new one for $10.00. Got 5 decoders for $52.00 with shipping.
They sent me there D15SR decoders that MSRP is $29.95. I don't need 6 light functions but love the Torque Compensation. I used one of the D15SR in a old RTR Athearn SD 50 I posted about years ago, I had gave up on it because it ran so badly. With the NCE decoder in it, it runs like a different engine!
I was on there Web Site looking at there decoders. In details none I looked at listed Torque Compensation as a feature. Do all the NCE decoders have this?
All so, where do you folks buy yours on line? My LHS only carries Digitrax.
Thanks for the coming answers.

I tend to get them in a 4 pack, for the cheapy ones from Litchfield station
Are you home now? I could run over and replace the connector on your throttle...

I use Litchfield Station for my Tsunamis and some NCE. For my DASR NCE decoders I use that un-named auction site.
Ken,
I've used Litchfield Station, Tony's Trains, Empire Northern Models and Ulrich Models. All are very good suppliers.

Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.
For a bulk purchase of NCE D13SRJ decoders you can't beat Empire Northern Models in Webster, New York, which has a 10 pack for $11.99 each (plus shipping).
NCE is also in Webster, so Empire Northern can probably just walk across the street to pick them up.

Thanks for the places to buy them from, but what about the Torque Compensation? The CV's I am looking for are CV 116 and CV 117.
Just pop the NCE guys an email, they're happy to answer any questions you might have. You can call them too. Just don't call on Fridays - they're off to shows.

Yes, the D13SRJ has Torque Compensation, as do all the current NCE decoders (in HO anyway).

I went to Ulrich Models and they had it listed on all the NCE's I looked at. Thanks for all the answers folks.
Jay, did you get my address and when can you ship? I sent the address by PM here on the board.
