Made the Jump to DCC Today

[LynnB]

Holy cow - I guessed right and it worked!

Thanks to a suggestion on the Bachmann Forum stating I should add more resistance, I increased the length of the programming track and added a Bachmann lighted Amtrak passenger car along with the HHP8 engine. I went through the programming steps to change the engine's address to the engine's road number - and it worked! I still don't understand why adding resistance allowed the Zephyr to "see" and write to the decoder...but it worked. Go figure.

Wow first I've heard of this fix then again I can't say I've ever came across a problem with my programming, I use a programming track booster PTB-100 , I needed this when I first started installing and running tsunammi sound in my engines.
