      Thank you. I try to show what I used to look for when I started installing decoders.

    Haven’t heard Of anyone using a Digitrax sound Decoder in forever. That’s very interesting.

    Some hobbyists burn on the top back little holes so the sound is clearer in a circle pattern FYI.

    Thanks, I have the same loco that I’m going to install that same encoder in. It’s my first attempt so thanks for the video.

    For jobs like soldering to the top of that brass screw, that's when I break out the 140 watt soldering gun. It'll heat that screw real hot right NOW. Then just hit it with the solder and get back off of it. Works good.

      These decoders will fit a variety of locomotives and brands.

      I use a Digitrax PR3 for uploading sounds to the decoder. czcams.com/video/CKcOZi3aeHY/video.html

    The version of that same decoder they made has default steam sounds, how would I switch it over to the diesel sounds it also comes with?

      I don't think you can change cv's with that system. Can you take the locomotive to a local hobby shop or club? One of them may be able to help.
