Hello Karlb, <br /> <br />I was under the impression that the latest NMRA recommendations for DCC covers the 'new' feedback decoders, essentially replacing the old dumb remote control unit with a smart responding computer. Taking advantage of the feedback would require a rather more sophisticated base station to use this new information usefully. <br /> <br />Essentially DCC3 has made DCC2 and DCC1 redundant already so that's twice that it has been replaced by something better. Will it be replaced by something better again? I should bloody well hope so, have you looked at a phone or computer lately. It doesn't resemble last years model much does it. I think we will all see the day when we will read threads such as "How much flash memory does a switcher need" and "When my loco downloads after a session the pictures aren't lined up" and of course my favourite "My Loco's are all Microsoft and my pals layout is Mackintosh, how do I run my trains on his layout?"
