For some time I have been having some severe signal problems with my DCS system. Have an extensive fleet of MTH engines on the main layout; engine not found, engine or repeat sounds when a soft key pushed or unresponsive buttons and difficulty operating lash ups. I had gone through the DCS guide rewired it with star pattern added lights to the distribution power block etc. as recommended in the book. I have been moving TMCC engines off the main layout . Last night I moved my 2 remaining TMCC engines to a siding turned off the power to that siding and unplugged the TMCC power supply. Instantly everything DCS worked perfect. No more signal problems. I went looking for a 22uh RF choke for the TMCC engines that was recommended in the DCS guide. It was suggested a 4 amp choke but the electrical shop did not have any that big will keep looking. Happy to be running trains trouble free again now.
