Precision Craft Y6 & Tsunami

[NW Modeling List]

Will do, Unk. Of course, I'm hoping that I'll get lucky statistically and that one of the 255 possible auto-sync choices will yield nirvana. Only 253 more options to go ...
'Course, it'd probably be faster just to install the blasted cam...

  Andre  - How's about letting me know when you get good with the cam, and I'll send you a couple of Y-3s and a J to do . . .

    Many thanks! After looking inside the tender I was hoping it would be as easy as it appeared. I appreciate the confirmation.

    I installed one; my first sound install ever. Basically, I put a pair of round speakers in Soundtraxx enclosures and tucked them into the round racks molded into the tender floor.

    I followed advice read in MR and snipped away just enuf of the shrink tubing to expose the JST (I think it is) connector. I then plugged an NMRA 8-pin plug into the decoder. The other end went into the PCM circuit board's plug. By leaving in the circuit board, you simplify wiring, but don't have a lot of room since the Tsunami won't fit under the board. The decoder ends up riding close to the coal pile when the tender shell's placed back on the frame. Since the tender's big, it's a fairly easy install.

    Sounds great, but I'm still trying to synch the exhaust beats to the driver rotation. May end up installing a cam yet ...

      In reading the archives I found a number of Precision Craft Y6b owners who bought the silent version and added a Tsunami. I finally bit when Factory Trains offered them for $199. Could someone offer advice on how they installed the Tsunami? Were you able to use the NMRA decoder plug? Any advice is appreciated!
