DCS and Fastrack Command Control switches

One more thing, I did add another power drop after the switch but it had no effect.

If you're powering the switch from track power, try this:  Replace the track power jumper with a 22uh choke.  That made a significant difference in my setup with eight command Fastrack switches.

Thanks, John.  They are powered by the track.  I think I bought a few chokes a while ago.  I'll give it a try tomorrow.

Thanks GRJ, I had to order some chokes.  Amazing difference, I now have 10's everywhere.

That's great, it's amazing how simple things can bite you in the butt.

Where do you buy these chokes?

All over the place, a good price is this eBay listing: 291617081883, 50 of them for $4.18 shipped.

If you're in a hurry, look for them on Digikey.

Thanks!

Or eBay 231287433459, presently $1.24 for 50 pieces (free shipping).

Or that.   I just grabbed the first decent priced one I found.
