Hey all. I have a had yet another problem crop up. when powering up, the little red light that indicates commands (not the red one that indicates bad communications) flashes rapidly. No commands can be issued while this is going on. I found that rolling the boost/break button towards boost cancels the flashing and commands can be issued.of course, who wants to figure out where you have to hold that control to try and have a little fun operating this expensive stuff. I finally threw the handheld across the room and broke both touch screens, that is how aggravated I have become with this substandard system. Im thankful I havent offed my postwar collection, as that is what I will be operating (again) Until such time as Lionel seriously addresses the issues of this system I will not endorse it. Now how to recover the thousands of dollars I have spent on this system....
