AutoSteer - Luxury or Valuable Tool?
by Adam Gittins
On this foggy overcast morning late in
March, I'm sure that some of the same thoughts are
racing through my mind as what many other farmers
are experiencing - mostly a mile long list of things
to get done before planting, and in a flash spring
fieldwork will be done and over like every other
year. I was lucky enough to get a small window of
field work in on my farm before the rain this week,
and got some dry fertilizer spread. I will say I was
very thankful to have an autosteer system while
performing this task especially, since it is always
so hard to tell how far away from the previous pass
you are, and overlap can become quite costly with
fertilizer prices not sliding back even though the
commodity prices have diminished considerably over
the last couple of years.
This got me
thinking about my investment in autosteer for my
farm, and all of the impacts of it. I asked myself
the question, is this system just a luxury item, or
is it actually a tool that is saving money and
improving efficiency? Let's look into this for my
operation and break it down.

Data Plans for GPS 6500 Units with a
Rover Bundle |
|
|
by HTS Ag
With the new GPS 6500's
there has been a lot of questions about how
to activate the cell plan when you buy a
Rover Bundle with the GPS 6500. The CDMA
Rover Bundle is specifically for use with
Verizon. There is also a GSM Rover Bundle
that is specifically for use with AT & T.
The vendor recommends that we work with
the data activation center, phone number
866-966-8881, website
www.dataactivationcenter.com
Before
you call or go online, you will need your
MEID number that is located on the receiver
at the bottom. I have put a business
activation template and a personal
activation template below for information
that they may need to do your activation.
Also located below are activation
instructions for both the GSM (AT & T) and
CDMA (Verizon) Relay Activations.
