Title: DCC Specialties
Post by: normanball@icloud.com on December 28, 2019, 13:18
HI All,
And a very happy modelling year to all!  Does anyone know what is up with Dcc Specialties? There website and e-mails are no longer active! I have a new PSX4 which was showing a short sp I disconnected All track feeds, and then the outputs from the unit, still showed a fault so I connected a new feed, fault still showing, trying to reset Cv to default and using manual reset all did nothing, so I was trying to contact them direct and found the above problem???

Cheers

Norman

I did a Google search on DCC Specialities and it returned a URL of an IP address https://66.39.46.164/ (https://66.39.46.164/) and not a registered domain name.It is now highly unusual for to be able to obtain an SSL certificate for nothing but a public IP address. I ran a trace and the IP address pings ok but a tracert request failed. The IP address belongs to an IP address range owned by a US ISP.In my opinion the site owner failed to renew their hosting package and/or domain name and the site has been suspended. Whether this is a temporary or permanent suspension I cannot say.

Hi there,

I managed to sort out what I needed from the DCC Speialities via DCC Concepts.

DCC Specialists are a group of people who happen to be interested in and produce stuff for model railways.

Thanks
