[?][?]I have an MRC DCC 2000 system. I am experiencing a drop in voltage going to the trackwork. As a result, my locomotives are operating very slowly. My test of voltage is from the output connections on the MRC unit. So, it is not the wiring to the trackwork that is causing the drop in voltage. I am getting about 12 volts from my power source, but only about 8 volts from the DCC unit. Does this mean I need a booster or is there something wrong with my system? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
