Hi Everyone...
Need a bit of Help hear I have an ACELLA Set with 1 Powered LOCO & A Dummy LOCO on the other end. I had the Powered Loco converted into a DCC Decoder with Sound @ my local Hobby shop. Well when I got the Engine Back 1 week after NEW YEARS I Dropped off the LOCO before Thanksgiving. The LOCO sounds like CRAP / Runs Crappy too & YES my Track is Clean LOL. I Popped off the Shell & it looks like the Train TECH put in a Frankenstin'ed Decoder & looked used & was in a different LOCO before the wires did not look new. I called the Hobby Shop Up to find out the Hobby shop owner Had to FIRE the Train TECH & give him a lifetime BAND to the hobby shop Turns out this guy was taking Money for Repairs & pocketing the Money & putting Used Equipment in Clients Locos & once not working well got MORE Money & making other HACK Repairs & Taking that money as well from clients. This was a 3 year Scam going on under the owners knowledge. But I was still out the $175.00 I myself & the other 10 owners that got the shaft from this guy. Now the LAW is looking into his Action's & everything is pending so who knows what's going to happen to the guy.
MY Question... Is there a DCC Decoder with sound designed for this LOCO I can get & what brand & price. Thanks
ANYWAY my main Reason for the POST
