I’ll probably be sorry I started this topic but my curiosity finally got the best of me.
I’m a long time model railroader, very long time. Early on I as a young teen built everything, including my power supplies. 16 volt high current transformer, Selenium rectifier and wire wound potentiometer for speed control. I hand laid all of my track and built my turnouts on a shelf in my bedroom.
When I was old enough to earn some money I bought a MRC power pack, I was in heaven. As time went on I grew into a career job and started my first layout. As the years passed I enhanced my model railroad and stayed with MRC power packs. I stayed with MRC through the years because I never had a single problem with them.
Finally in the 2000s I wanted to add sound to my locomotives so I made the decision to cut over to DCC. Again because I had never experienced any kind of problem with MRC Product for over 50 years I chose to go with MRC Prodigy Advance Squared DCC. I have used it for what I would say heavy duty model railroading (multiple Cab Forwards pulling 3½% grades) for close to 10 years without a single problem. I have decoders from several manufacturers and all work very good, again not one single problem.
After all of that my question is why does MRC DCC attract so much flack?

I still operate my layout as dual system DC and DCC, mainly because of cost. I have 12 decoders 4 MRC, 6 Digitrax and 2 Soundtraxx. Over the last 60 plus years I have accumulated over 70 locomotives. I run my steam decoder equipped locomotives and a few diesels on DCC. I have built up several specialty diesel locomotives that need multiple DCC functions to operate. I have wired every locomotive with a NMRA 8 pin socket, all are DCC ready with a shorting plug installed for DC operation.
As I said above this is just my curiosity, I’m not criticizing any other manufactures equipment. My decoder preference now is the Digitrax plane Jane DH-126 decoder for cost and ease of installation and the Soundtraxx TSU-1000 SP Cab Forward, their sound is out of this world.
