@TRAIN COLLECTOR 2 posted:Gents, thanks for getting back to me. I opened her up again and the antenna is firmly connected to the radio board. The handrails on the boiler have all the insulation, so that looks good. I'm sure it's the R2LC board. I have a friend in SoCal who is a MTH auth repairman and knows a local Lionel repair tech who might have some used boards for sale. So I'll try that route for now. Thanks again!
P.S. John, are you going to York this year in October and DCS user (Eagles Nest) get together?
I go to York every chance I get, this year will be no exception. BTW, I have R2LC's.
