Earl:
These units sound fantastic! Please post pictures.
With respect to you question, I use the Soundtraxx EMD 567 Tsunami for all my F
units (F3 & F7s) and am very happy with the results.
SHS sells (or used to sell) a plug that will fit their F3 boards. Simply hard
wire the decoder to the plug, adding the appropriate resistors for the lights,
and you are good to go.
I am not familiar with the set up of the power chassis of the AM units, but I
would guess that you would need to hard wire the decoder to the appropriate
leads.
Both of these are very simple jobs if you know how to use a soldering iron and
have the property tools and equipment.
Please feel free to contact me offline if you have additional questions.
