interesting on the size of the Gaugemaster decoder, I have tried the Lais decoder, really not impressed by it, and hearing you speak about the copying thing, that is not cool. Anyway for conversions of these old loco's I always keep returning to the Hornby 8pin decoders, these always worked for me, although there are a few new players that I haven't tested yet, defiantly going to tryout the Gaugemaster one, definitely very sooted for tight spaces. I always standard solder out the capacitors, so never had that problem, but that was a real good tip you gave there. And I find your video one of the better ones I've seen here on TH-cam, well done…
These are called suppressors and not capacitors, capacitors store electricity where as suppressors are used to cut down electrical interference. I.e television, radio etc.....keep up your good work, and thanks for sharing....
Just what I needed to see, thanks for sharing.
A Good Top Tip about the capacitors 🙂

Ah, thanks for that encouragement! I'm glad you found it helpful.
Good to see a new video from you. Though I don’t have DCC (I’m building a Hornby Dublo 3rail layout), I found that very interesting - thanks
