shawn-118 <br /> I recently took the plunge into DCC. I did not even connect it yet. I am in the process of it right now. I went to the shops for feedback and recomendations as well as the local clubs having their open houses this time of year. Two of the shops dropped the MRC systems and the clubs were using Digitrax. Locally from what I have seen in my area the support from the stores leaned to the Digitrax. They also carried the Atlas and NCE systems. From a pricing stand point I felt that I was going to get the best bang for my buck from the Digitrax ( I found it to be priced $20-$30 more) plus the potental for expandability is very good. My local shop support is outstanding also. I was given very good instruction with buying the system as well as decoder recomendations with instructions. I was told that if I have a problem with intalling anything that I could bring in the engine for decoder installation and programming. I feel as it you must also look at the service dept. of your car dealer also. I could have mail ordered my system and saved a few dollars but I also wanted to purchase the local support issues and I was willing to pay for it. This whole process is an education. Do your homework. It is nice to spend your money once and to be happy with it. <br />
