DC is old fashioned. <br />DCC is new, the wave of the future.... <br />NOT! <br />Thanks to the well meaning folks at NMRA we have at our disposal a pile of crude, simplistic, ancient technology hopelessly overpriced, hopelessly limited. <br /> <br />If you want computer control the obvious place to put the computer is in the train. With todays technology an embedded system with it's own IP address responding to unlimited number of commands and providing unlimited sensor data can be scratch built for less than the price of a decent premade DCC receiver. <br /> <br />DCC was the wave of the future, a long time ago. Today it's just pathetic, sort of like a VIC20. <br /> <br />DC is still old fashioned, sort of like a steam engine. <br />
