 Rick Bell, a online DCC dealer has a Yahoo Group with quite a few DCC/sound clinics. The sound cam is one of them. Some people experience double chuff's at times using the method by SoundTraxx. Join the group and look in the Files section. The files are PDF files but I would rather not copy his stuff and post it here. Links will not work as you have to join the group to see the files. Keeps spammers out.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.

 Good morning everybody.

                                     I have just recivied my Tsunami heavy steam dsd.I was supprised to read about a device i had never   heard of before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is a "cam wiper switch" and where is it found on a steamer,also what does it do and is there any way around  this .I  intend to fit the dsd in a PK2   2-10-2.

Don´t worry, you don´t need the Cam switch, it is only if you want the chuff to be a 100% sync´d with the wheels that you need it. When you don´t use the cam you will need to alter a few CV´s to make the sync instead.Have you read the manual? In it you will find all you need to know about a Steam-engine installation. Good luck.
