I got some of the Y cables to set up my crossovers. The idea was to use one decoder to power two servos. I quickly ended up going to a more traditional Servo/Decoder for each switch because with the auto point rails, and even manual point rails I could not get them to the point were both were snug at the same time and the decoder would want to keep pushing the point rails for one and it would sit there and hum. I most likely could have alleviated it by adjusting the throw rods better, which I may try on the new layout.

OK, good to know. I emailed Duncan at Tam Valley last week about this, so we'll see what he says.
