I am trying to decide which DCC system to purchase. I would like to hear the pros and cons of both Digitrax and NCE (RF systems for both), and any tech support issues if any.

Thank you,

Check the archives. I think we've been down this flaming road a few times already.

They both work fine, go with what others in your area are using.

Thanks guys, good comments, especially you Mike. I visited the URL you attached and this info was of great use to me, and saved me from searching the archives. With grandchildren running around the house raising h..., I don't get too much time on the PC, tsc, tsc!!!
