Title: Outdoor AM-1 protection
Post by: mcbunton on April 05, 2021, 02:33:47 PM
what do any of you with outdoor railroads use to protect your AM-1's?  I have three scattered around my layout to control turnouts, and they are working well.  I bought some aluminum buildings listed by a guy on a G Scale Facebook group, they look good BUT the range is almost non existent if I leave them over the AM-1 and battery powering it.

Will the signal go thru a plastic or wood building?  I really hate the thought of running enough wire to get them all to a central location close to where I am most of the time running my trains...............
