Thank you CJACK, I thought that might be what this particular accessory was intended for. However, when Dale and I installed it, for some reason it made little difference... I personally think the way my layout was wired up at that time was the problem. The memory of Dale, and his 3 or 4 day visit, really was a learning experience, a fun adventure visiting my friends in the area, I will never forget. Dale told me his layout was in the attic, on the floor...This hobby is about the people in the hobby, that's why I enjoy this OGR Forum...Thank You.
I'll buy one, please.
Just in case it has disappeared John, P&P wants 2 of these, and offer up the club layout if you need to BETA test it.
I think I need one of these, as I have a couple frustrating dead spots. Hopefully it's easy to hook up. I'm electronically challenged!
John,
I posted to a thread last week. If that was the one that disappeared, I want to make sure I am on your list to purchase one. Thanks
Put me on the list for one.
Bob
Noted all.
Put me down for a TMCC signal booster, John. Thanks!
Was on the first list. Please put me in John, thank you.
Hi, guys this sounds great. I have a issue with certain TMCC odessey F-3 PRR Green. The A unit flicks in certain areas and will just stop the entire lashup. It is the only engine I have doing it. I have about 900 feet of track. If this is that type of issue please put me down for one as well. Thanks guys y’all always have great imformation.

Your issue is likely an issue with the individual TMCC locomotive. This device is designed to solve more global issues. That being said, a stronger signal is likely to help, but it would be more to the point to fix the offending locomotive.
John
I will take two, one for the club and one for my home layout
John
Please John don't forget about me, of course I would like to get one
John,
As mentioned once before in the former thread, Bob De Guarde of the N.J.Hi-Railers had done a test with the buffer/booster on our layout for The Raritan Valley Hi-Railers, so Dale would have readings to analyze, a little over a year ago. We would like you to build us one for our group because at the Greenberg shows our layout usually runs 200 linear feet around. Our biggest issue is trying to get enough TMCC signal strength to the turntable/roundhouse area and would like to correct this so we can use the TMCC to move the engines instead of using the conventional mode. Thanks for all you do!

I am in for one also.

For anyone with an email in their profile that replies, I'll send an announcement out when we're ready to proceed, probably in about a month or six weeks from now, sometime after York. After the testing of the prototype, we'll move on to making them.

Note that you don't have a profile email.
Hi John, prior to Dales passing he came down to our club to see if the signal was significantly increased. The results were excellent. Please put us down for one. We are very interested here on the left coast.
Jeff
Gotcha'!
Hi John,
I have some questions about the signal booster itself.
How big is it? (physical size)
Does it mount on a central panel (mounting holes?) or attach to the TMCC wire somewhere at or near the edge of the layout?
Can you post a photo of it (or is it identical to the one pictured above)?
Thank you!
George
John
Thanks again for picking this and continuing Dales work. Cant wait to install one of these on the TMB club layout
