Beginners Guide - Soldering an iPhone Speaker onto a Sound Decoder and installing it Into a Loco

So you're starting out in DCC and wondering whether you can install a chip into a loco? Are you complete beginner? Me too. This week I show you how I installed a Loksound V5.0 into my Dapol Class 121, upgrading the speaker to an iPhone 5 one. I use basic soldering techniques to show you how I get the install done. With very little prior experience I share with you the little tips I've learnt along my journey and the lessons I've learnt for you to avoid. This is a warts and all demonstration, with bloopers intentionally left in. You can do it too!
