Digitrax UT6D Throttle. 

I have a UT6D that I have used about 9 months now, It worked perfectly for 5 to 6 months then I noticed on occasion when turning the speed knob it would either return to zero or may jump ahead several numbers. This happened a few times and now it has become more and more the norm, Of course when it returns to zero the train stops and when it jumps ahead the train speeds up a great deal. It does tis no matter the locomotive and does it on battery power or if it is plugged in.

I just finished attaching all my feeder wires to the 4 individual buss wires coming into my helix space. And I cleaned all the track with mineral spirits and extremely fine emery type sandpaper.

My thoughts are this is a good time to apply some No-Ox to the tracks in the helix, and leave it set for a week or so before wiping if off (BTW I do know the caution about applying it lightly). My question is if I should eventually decide to put additional feeder wires on some of the track sections, how difficult is it to solder track that's been treated with No-Ox ??

Hello all,

Is there a way to disable to onboard LED on a soundtraxx econami decoder via CV setting somewhere?  The light is visible how I have the decoder mounted.  And, no, remounting it is not practical. 

If not, any suggestions how to turn it off?  Ideas coming to mind include burning the LED off with a soldering iron or covering it with black tape.

Thanks in advance 

I guess I am biased once in a while.  I think that doing DCC without a multimeter is like walking in the dark in the woods at night with no moon.  If it beeps, even softly, tells me when the wire is connected, tells me that I’ve got power, tells me how many ohms an unreadable resistor is, or checks to see if I’ve burned out an LED, then I could be happy.  If it costs one tenth of what mine cost maybe it could make someone else happy too.
