Without saying anything BAD about the "other guys", I will say this much. <br />( I hope others can do the same)[}:)] <br />I love my NCE, and I'll quickly say why. <br />Fully functional, not like some which cannot run special effects on some decoders. <br />Feedback from the PHPro throttle comes to you in English. Not some code or flashing LED that means something or the other. While we are on the subject, the Procab and the intermediate cabs are so simple to use, my son had them mastered at age 5. <br />My dealings with a few tech problems and questions with NCE have been great. Jim Scorce (Owner of NCE) has never failed to be helpful, even when one problem I was having was caused by another companies decoders, he walked me through a programming fix for them. <br /> Here's a challenge for you. Seek out other DCC owners or clubs with DCC in your area. See if they will let you "road test" a throttle and see how it feels, and if simple commands are easy for YOU to execute (selecting engines, speed and direction, and consisting units). Train shows are also a possible venue for this. If they start rattling off mumbo-jumbo-technical garbage, walk away. This test is to see what feels good to YOU. After all, you are going to be the one running it. Just like a car, if it doesn't fit your butt, you wont be happy driving it.[;)] <br /> I did the same thing 5 years ago, and havn't regretted it for a moment.[:D][:D]
