Hello all,
I wanted to solicit comments on MR's review of the Atlas Dash 8-40CW. What is really bothering me is the last paragraph stating to the effect "Atlas doesn't recommend MU'ing the Silver and Gold Series". Now, in normal DC mode, I can totally understand this as the starting voltages would be way different. The statement would also lead on to believe that you shouldn't do this in DCC mode either, which in my opinion, defeats one of the benefits of having DCC.
I do own two of each models, however have not have time to get them out of the boxes and put them on the layout (way too much yard work). I had bought two of each thinking that having two sounds units MU'ed together would be too much noise (not to mention cost). I had planned on have two sets, each with one gold and one silver series (with decoder) running on the layout.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
