Stevelewis Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 More than likely, an ESU or Massoth decoder used for mainly large scale locos (LGB Aristocraft Bachmann Fn3 etc) They were very nice dedoders to install especially with the screw teminals, they usually came with a whole bunch of colour coded cables as well. Happy Days when I think back, disasembled G scale locos all over the Kitchen, several enusing rows!!!! PS if you are ever near jeremys place ( Dragon g Scale) take it in he will know,, (tell him I sent you!!! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted March 13, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 13, 2014 will try and take a picture with a lower resolution. At the top of every RMweb page is an image editor. You can use that to resize your pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted March 14, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 14, 2014 just a quick question what does the image editor look like and how do you use it ? be gentle I am useless at these computer thingys !! In the top line of the page, beneath the RMweb banner, it says "Portal" "Forums" etc, then "Image Editor". Click on it, and in the middle of the page (you may need to scroll down) is a menu. Click on "open image from computer" and it leads into your PC. Find the image you want to reduce, using that link, click on it and you should find it opens in the editor. Then use the headings. "Image" will offer you "resize". I find an image about 1800 pixels wide offers plenty of detail, but gets under the required 1MB size easily.

Jintyman Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Hi there, I had a Loksound XL that had green terminal blocks on the ends. It was a sound decoder for my friends Heljan 37 (7mm) !!!! It looked very much like the picture above......... Jinty ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
