I looked thru the TRWDCC page. Quite alot of information for electronics
enthusiasts.
Learning the hard way how to hold a soldering iron, I'm not fully capable of
putting such circuits together.
Well, that was more of a joke, I can use a soldering iron and i know what a
resistor does, but more than that, I'm lost.
So here's the question: How can I get my hands on a DCC unit that plugs
into the computer? Or perhaps sit down with an electronics guru and build a
few.
Whatever.
The latest price is $150 for a DCC stand alone from a hobby shop.
I'm torn, don't feel like tieing up a oc for the train set--a DCC stand
alone might be better in this case.
I'm throwing it out there--discuss! ;)
Stay safe.
