If you have an NCE System - Radio Upgrade

If you have an NCE system they are in the process of offering a Cab upgrade which improves the radio range and response times.

My understanding is this only affects the wireless aspects, so if you don't have wireless I don't think it will change anything.

Here is a link with more information:

Jim-

Glad to hear the fix is successful. I've got wireless cabs, but I tend to run them tethered for various reasons. Once mine are upgraded, I'll have to give wireless another try.

Best regards,

Hi Greg-

I'll be able to compare the mod and unmod units on next Saturday, will see how it works, because I have 3 base stations.

Do you have multiple radio base stations or multiple radio cabs? Or both? It would be interesting to hear more comparisons between the modded and unmodded versions. Everything I have heard has been positive.

Now, if NCE would only add a battery charging feature to the ProCab! (Zimo and Massoth allow cabs to charge when plugged into the bus. I believe there is a hack to add this functionality, but it would be nice to have this as a standard feature.)

Best regards,

Hi Greg-

Did you get a chance to use the upgraded system? I am curious to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

Best regards,
Bob
Greg-

That's great news. I think I'll schedule mine this week.

Best regards,

Hi Jim-

That's great information. Wasn't Digistar the original US Zimo distributor? I remember calling them years ago. The owner was very helpful.

Best regards,
Bob
