    Re: DCC for the RCX —David Koudys
   (...) Got the programming part--all motors on differnt Loco #'s--figured it out. I wouldn't mind building that Ack circuit though, so any advice on using hte LEGO diodes would be helpful. I'm having a great time--and by the way, as mentioned on the (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

Another clue is there's no band on one end. Could be one of those "free to good (...) (21 years ago, 31-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

   (...) I thought that the little doohickey that goes across the motor inputs on the electric motor in the housing was a diode--don't quite remember where i picked up that idea, but a 'noise reducing' thing makes more sense. Anyway, i'll go get a (...) (21 years ago, 31-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)
