 Dave,I am with you - I never really understood where the problem lies. I have been using turnouts with insulated frogs on various DCC layouts without any additional wiring than a set of feeders for each track, spur or siding and I never had any problems with engines stalling or short circuits. All I did is to check my wiring with a volt meter and to ensure my track is in gauge and clean. DCC friendly does not me DC unfriendly and a Peco Electrofrog can be also used with DCC, proper wiring assumed.IMHO, it finally boils down to the questions of how many pick-ups your locos have and whether they can "bridge" the dead frog properly.
