Complete Massoth Dimax kit just popped up on eBay....

I have a 1200 Massoth - Really nice piece of kit - Wireless range is fantastic, the bolt ons (I have a shuttle unit) aren't cheap - but their rock solid in build and performance.

I'm looking to buy a SPROG - I've installed the software on a fellow G Scalers laptop and had a "play" with the read out and programming abilities of the SPROG - and it beats, hands down, any other MTS programming application I've seen.
It's frightning what you can actually do with this piece of kit! :love:
 
Mmmmmmm I am reading this thread with real interest. I have 3 distinct sections on my layout run by three separate TE receivers fed by a 13 amp TE Crest transformer. This all works great (track damage allowing - see Thursday 21st thread)....but I have been thinking of going over to the dark side of DCC on one or two of the sections, or at least having the facility. I purchased an LGB MTS 2 parallel system some time back becuase it was going cheap and it has sat in its box with added controllers and booster. I have only got a couple or three locos that are chipped and have really baulked at the cost of chipping the others as some are apparently real pigs to install into, according to the advice.
I also find the LGB programming system as about intuitive as a very unintuitive thing (that is me and I know that there are many of you who would scream "WHAT!?... is the man mad?"). But I am an Apple Mac man through and through and believe that if it is not easy to see what you have done while you are doing it, then it ain't intuitive.
I have to run three locos triple headed for decent length trains on the mainline, due to the incline on the layout, so the fact of chipping them for sound power and smoke (they are mostly USAT locos), as well as the power that they draw when dragging up the incline, has made me stick with what I know best .....analogue.....
BUT I saw Steve's (Bigjack) system which is a Massoth 1200Z etc with switch modules, wireless navigators etc and saw how slick DCC could be and also intuitive due to the graphic feedback on the Navigator screen.

I bought a Sprog system for Mac and have tinkered with that to explore programming and found that very intuitive.

So.....all in all
Although the Massoth is one hell of a beast and has some pretty slick features. I would save money, get a used MTS 2 or 3, a Sprog programming system and a Massoth Navigator and spend the rest on chips, or other lovely stuff.
But what do I know? I am a backward analogue kind of guy.......... well... in the trainworld that is ..........
