Thanks. This information will be of considerable help. Currently the club utilizes two channel (A & B) of cab control. The only 'hard wired control' is the main yard which is set-up with it's own 'hogger' and block switches to allow parts of the yard to run off the (radio) Channel A or B controls. Besides the installation, the biggest concern is getting the couple of ;negative' ("old timer block") guys to enjoy themselves with it. So far, most everyone in clubs with similar personnel have found this not to be a major hurdle. <br /> <br />I'll be printing all the responses to questions I have post (reguardless of how basic they are/were) to utilize later as a reference. I have also contacted each of the DCC companies (MRC, Atlas, Digitrax and Easy DCC) with various questions. They usually respond in more of a 'sales pitch - we can do it mode', where as normal model railroad folks on this group site respond with better and more informative answers, having solved many of the "problems" themselves. I guess you could say "that's the value and purpose of this site and the forums'. <br /> <br />The more information I can get, the better. After all, why make the smae mistakes others may or may not have made. You can learn from the 'mistakes' of others by asking. I'm sure I'll find ways to make enough 'new' mistakes of my own. <br /> <br /> <br />thanks to everyone <br /> <br />Mike
