Hang on Barry, he has completely separate loops not joined anywhere. Unless he's using an original "G" it should be no problem... But why not phase them anyway. they're probably in phase anyway but it wouldn't hurt to check.
I do have a question about passive mode though... I've tired passive mode and had good results but my old layout was wired with terminal blocks and paired wiring...I don't think passive mode works as well if one tries to hook it up something similar to TMCC and the one wire "U" connection. Will one set of wires from the tiu output to the track cut it?
