Being reluctant to solder directly to the terminals of the Roco 10775 8-way point controller, I want to use the supplied 10603 three way connectors, but i have hit a 'snag'.
the reccomended Roco three-way flat ribbon cable is unavailable at the moment in the UK.
I have tried cutting out some of the strands of 1 mm ø wire to reduce it to 0.9 mm ( the size of the hole in the plug, but then, once assembled, the assembled plug wont fit onto the terminals on the 10775 .
my question is, what size wire do i use and where can i buy it, now that Maplins have gone bust ?

the fact that the controller has a 'P' sticker denotes that it is the later parallel MTS controller - all the manuals including the CV settings are downloadable from the LGB website
did you get the programming 'head' that clips into the handset, ( should be included in the 'starter' set.) ?
I bought all my LGB, before Markelin took them over and the prices went astronomical.
I use this set-up with radio control to run my garden railway.

too harsh
reading these reviews , perhaps I'm either unlucky, or my face does not fit, with them.
when they were first available, I asked Invicta to get me a Mini trains #2003 contractor's loco, THREE WEEKS later, I queried it's non arrival. finally contracted Andrias in Germany- to be told that Invicta had never placed my order- finally got one elseware
recently ordered a Ratio 502 cattle dock kit from them -- It's been nearly five weeks, now, since ordering-- I leave you to draw your own conclusion.
looks like all my orders will be made somewhere else in future.
