OK, I´ll do it soon. and tell you what happens, thanks, doc
I'll bet one of the CT Elektronik decoders is even betetr than the Lokpilot... either one definitely is better than the 1x3 sereis from Digitrax, at least where the BackEMF is concerned. Don't think about trying to program the CT Elektronic though - even with DecoderPro it's WAY complicated because the manual simply does not explain their algorithm enough to know what each of the multitude of CVs does.
It may not be as big a deal in HO - although the 'jump' in Digitrax decoders is annoying - I've been able to program it almost compeletly away but if you watch closely it's still there. HO locos have larger flywheels and can get away with things that are readily apaprant in smalelr scales. However, a friend of mine models in N scale, and scratchbuilds his own locos - about the only commercial part in the drive train is the motor itself in may of his small steamers - usually tender drive. A Lenz, or even better ESU or CT decoder (and CT has the smallest Z scale decoder currently) definiteyl run the sometimes not top quality motors far better than a Digitrax. Old 3 pole Arnold motors with the ESU or CT decoder run as well as modern Kato motors with other decoders. The creep ability is something else, and not able to be duplicated with the same loco with a Digitrax decoder.

David, all cost around $ 25.- (remember that in a Blueline I need just a Lokpilot); but, please, tell me how to crawl a Blueline AC6000 with a Digitrax DZ125PS, please. I moved CV´s 55, 56 and 57 up and down, without luck. Bye
For everybody: for a Blueline loco, and after using NCE N14IP and Digitrax DZ125PS decoders, the best very slow motion is reached with an ESU Lokpilot 52611. Greetings.-
