Products for Radio Control
S-CAB Radio Receiver
The S-CAB loco receiver (LXR) is designed to receive DCC commands by radio and connect them directly to a standard DCC decoder with which it is packaged, usually in a back-to-back arrangement for small decoders.
Dimensions: 1.42" x 0.67" x 0.14" (36 x 17 x 3.5 mm)
Price: LXR is not sold separately.
S-CAB Compatible DecodersS-CAB compatible decoders are standard DCC decoders integrated with an S-CAB radio receiver. They are installed in exactly the same manner as the original decoder. Both sound and non-sound versions are available.
Non-sound decodersNCE decoders are used for standard non-sound packages.
3 versions are available with ratings from 1 to 8 amps.
NCE D13J with direct radio interface
Dimensions: 1.25" x 0.7" x 0.3" (32 x 17.8 x 7.6 mm)
Price: $59.00
NCE D408SR with receiver
A 4 amp non-sound decoder for O-scale and larger.Compared to decoder, the receiver requires very little extra space and can be located together or separately.
If the receiver is mounted flat on the decoder board, a vertical antenna (shown in photo) may improve reception. Dimensions: 2.3" x 1.2" x 0.375" (59 x 31 x 9.5 mm)
Price: $89.00
NCE D808SR with receiver
NCE's 8 amp decoder shown here with an older model receiver. Lengthwise orientation of the antenna shown in the photo is no longer offered, since cross-wise orientation works just as well.
If the receiver is mounted flat on the decoder board, a vertical antenna may improve reception. Dimensions: 3.75" x 1.45" x 0.625" (96 x 37 x 15 mm)
Price: $139.00
Sound decodersSoundTraxx Tsunami2Tsunami2 is SoundTraxx’ premium line of sound decoders. Physically, they are similar to their respective Econami cousins but with a richer set of features and larger selection of sounds.

Size: 2.2" x 0.7" x 0.21" (56 x 18 x 5.5 mm) Double cell (2P) batteriesStorage capacity is increased by connecting 2 LiPo cells in parallel. Voltage is same as single cell, but energy storage is increased. For example, two 850 mAh cells in parallel provides 1700 mAh (1.7 Ah) storage. Standard package has back-to-back cells, which doubles thickness, but length and width is same as single cell.
PricesSingle cell (1P) batteries: $12
Double cell (2P) batteries: $20 Special Installation Situations
Battery power projects in HO scale locos often encounter difficult space limitations A battery arrangement configured to fit the available space can sometimes be helpful.
Split cell assembly: A double cell battery can be assembled with 2 cells connected by a length of wire that allows half of the battery (one cell) to be mounted each side of a loco motor or each side of a tender. 
Price for customized assembly: Add $5 to standard price.
Placing an OrderPlease use the Contact Form to begin an order process. While this may seem inconvenient, it's not so easy to pick the best combination of products to achieve a desired objective while working within the space available in a small model. Interaction by email often leads to a more successful project.
The Order Cart is deliberately not active at this time. This may change in the future, if and when battery power and radio control become more familiar within the model railroading community.
Order FormThis is not a live form, but the image can be copied and used as a worksheet.
