How could you have crosstalk when the DCSRC is only being used to generate a watchdog signal?

Casey, you need to go back and read the original post. I'm using a TIU channel to provide the watchdog and the DCS signal in the yard. Barry brought up the DCSRC later in the discussion. If you connect two DCS channels together, you will have problems.

Talking about the DCSRC...didn't I read somewhere that it will be updated to run any loco regardless of address?

Are you sure you're not thinking of the feature on new PS/3 engines that allows you to set them to factory defaults using the DCSRC? I've heard nothing about making the DCSRC universal, and I seriously doubt that will happen.
