Hi y'all, My name is Gerard Wassink, I'm from 1957, so almost 60 years old (or young) now. My layout is a freelance railroad, "Washtown & Beijville RailRoad" in H0. I'm interested in the (DCC and Loconet) techniques behind the hobby and scenery comes in 3rd or 4th... ;-) Now I'm trying to make my own DCC command station based on Arduino with DCC++. I have questions about that and will post those in the appropriate boards. Have a look at my (Dutch) website! Gerard
Welcome aboard, Gerard! I too would be interested in DCC, but I fear I'd never understand all of the coding, etc. 60 isn't bad as long as your brain is still in tact!
Hi Bill, there's no need to understand all the code. I haven't looked into the code (yet ;-) ). It's relatively easy to load the code and upload in into the Arduino. Here's my report on how I built it... In the meantime, this afternoon I hooked it up to JMRI and it works beautifully! Next I would like to be able to read and write Loconet as well... But that's for another day. 60 is the new 30... Gerard
