I can't think of a better way to evaluate this controller than using it with a BLI w/sound loco. [^] After all I wasn’t about to let all those function keys go untested! <br /> <br />I agree with Bachmann that DCC doesn't have to be complicated nor expensive. As for sound right now it does come with a high price tag but even these prices have come down considerably. <br /> <br />For what it’s worth I looked at some other DCC controllers (including Lenz) and they all seemed overly complicated for my needs with a simple 4’x 8’ track plan. Now you have to admit even running two trains on this small a layout is difficult to say the least even if you have two independent loops but with DCC hopefully it will be that much easier, perhaps something one wouldn’t attempt otherwise. <br /> <br />Another note: Their DVD enclosed with controller is informative. Beside changing engine ID you can set its direction. <br /> <br />Will add more pro's and con's next week.. <br /> <br />Enjoy <br />OTH <br />
