I know that I was one of those 30, Chris--sorry about not getting back to
you.
I d/led it but never actually used it yet :( So busy just getting a layout
up and running--making buildings, etc :)
I do plan on using the software, mayhaps this weekend :)

This weekend was exceptionally busy, but I had time to play with the layout.
Took my laptop downstairs, set it up with the IR tower, and loaded up Full
Throttle.
Wow! Pretty nifty piece of work, Chris! With only 2 DCC locos I didn’t task
the software, but still, in all, it did a magnificent job!
Maybe at our next rtlT train show we’ll put the software to the big test, with
mltiple locos ‘n such.
I also stopped by he local hobby show and attempted to buy DCC chips. Since the
hobby show took most of their stock to the train show in Toronto (which we
rtlers didn’t get to), there wasn’t much in the way of DCC chips there. But
they had one HO so I bought that, and cut up an electrical plate and soldered it
all together. Didn’t work at all with LDCC :(
Either the chips fried, or it doesn’t like the LDCC. Tested my connections and
soldering extensively last night and still nada. Will take the chip back to the
store and see what they have to say.
So my excursion into the realm of DCC accessories will have to wait ‘til tonight
:(
