Jim and I share similar backgrounds in electronics and instrumentation. When the technology evolved into "replace the board" troubleshooting, I sold my entire electronics shop and "traded" my FCC license for an electrician license, which led to a successful Solar and Wind Turbine Electric business.
Some may wonder, considering my background, why I haven't ventured into the dark side of DCC. I have considered it, but as that famous movie line goes; "A man has got to know his limitations". If I were 5 years younger and still had my eyesight (and patience) I would probably have a Zephyr.
There's an old saying, "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em". Who knows, someday I may become a CV banana just like PD. Actually I'm waiting for someone to design an LCD readout in braille.
