My mistake on MTH in S and G, however they have so little in those areas I had forgotten.

I love my DCS, but it really limits you.

this whole post is just opinions and unfortunately, the facts are few. All we can do is try to keep it real. I have around 100 engines on hand at a given time. I run what I want, when I want.

 So how am I limited? and why do you ( and others) seem to keep bashing it?

How limited is DCC that you have to send the command system in for upgrades? that DCC decoder development has taken so long and now is supposedly ahead? Just how much $$ has to be invested to realize that potential?

I don't wish to sound like a salesman. I end up defending my choice over and over. I have to wonder why the spiteful comments come up so much against systems. I can't help but feel much of it, is from lack of understanding. I just try and clarify what this system can and can't do. I see other posters glossing over each system's flaws. I know what they are and don't wish to attack them. Just point out what can be misleading. Like buying batteries that a year later need replacing with extensive use. I have a pile of old cordless tools laying here to prove my point. Yet I like battery power and don't condemn anyone for going that way.

 So why do others seem like they are so against DCS use? Don't use it. I'm OK with that. Don't post untrue facts about it or I will have to defend it. I hate public forums more and more each day.
