Hi Wiggy and John thanks for the very speedy reply I will have a go, at least I now feel a bit more confident that I wouldn't blow the chip!! Regards stewart

Hi, please excuse if this has been covered elsewhere but being new to dcc I was just after a little reassurance that I was doing the correct thing. I have a Heljan 128 oo gauge parcel loco that I have fitted with a 21 pin sound chip Loksound 4 from Howes along with 2 sugar cube speakers wired correctly. Problem is it is very loud and I would like to reduce the volume. I have read the manual and it would appear that I need to adjust CV63 down from the default setting of 183 to probably 120-140. Am I correct? I am sure one of you experts can assist please regards stewart

Just a quick update to say despite no replies to phone or emails from Ian Pemberton a message from Paypal to say my payment has been refunded. So good outcome in the end, however 0 for customer service, all it takes is a quick email to say sorry for the issues.

I think you guys must be more lucky than me I cant even get him to return phone calls or emails

Hi, Thanks for all the comments which I do take on board and yes my mistake it is direct train spares not supplies, however the reason I was adding this note was simply that shops should not send emails saying goods are dispatched when they aren't. The email was sent the Tuesday after ordering and when I hadn't received by Saturday I spoke to Ian Pembeton (the owner) who told me that no he hadn't dispatched because he had been ill and not been out and that now had posted on his way to Macclesfield. When it gets to this stage you don't know whether to believe or not. However it certainly means I would not order from him again.

Hi All, Being new to the hobby and to web dealers I wondered if anyone has had any dealings with Direct Train Spares at Burnley? I ordered some DCC sockets almost a fortnight ago and despite Phoning I have not had them. I spoke last Saturday to be told "in the Post" I have thought I would leave until Monday and then log a case with Paypal. The purpose of this note is really to see if I am just unlucky or are they a bad dealer? I suppose I am just spoiled by Track Shack and Hattons who dispatch so rapidly. Over to you guys.
