Reply to "MTH DCS Issues with TMCC/Legacy"

Evan,

As discussed above, some but not all TMCC or Legacy engines, as well as some illuminated cars (most notably older GGD passengers cars and Atlas cabooses), will interfere with the DCS signal. The solution is to place a 22uh RF choke inline with both of the offending engine’s pickup rollers.

In the case of a TMCC or Legacy steamer, it may be necessary to do so with both the engine and its tender.

Do I put the 22uh RF choke on both the DCS and Legacy/TMCC locomotives, or just the TMCC/Legacy locos?
