Just wondering if anyone with a BLI (sound equipped) switcher has experienced stalling over switches at low speeds?
I've metered the wheels and pickups and everything came out okee dokee when off the rails, yet the wee beastie still stalls for a moment when it hits a frog.
(doesn't happen on Peco's, but on Atlas, Shinnohara's and ME's)
It's a little frustrating when the sound stops then the engine fires up again before carrying on.
I've thought about powering the frogs, but my Bachman 70 tonner and small Athearn units all sail thru like champs at low speeds.
Next step will be to disassemble the unit and trace the entire circuit...
Here's a couple pics of #121 switching out the Fuerst Matthes Paper Mill:
