Hi everyone!

I just got a 74862 turntable that I want to use in DCC.
The user manual says that I need either a CS2 or 3 using mfx to reprogram it to DCC.
Anybody aware of an other method as I'm not keen of buying a CS just for this?
Thanks

Welcome to the club of "frustrations with my new C track Turntable". From what I can understand there's some sort of misconception with using the TT in DCC mode. The TT will work well using mfx.
Take it easy . . . . or any other way you can get it !!!!

Buy from a dealer that configures the TT for DCC operation.
Or maybe visit friends or a club or a friendly dealer who can do the configuration for you.

It is odd that an mfx device is required to enable DCC operation.
