GPS Issues

[Rider]

I'm having lots of issues with Satellite
Drift. Any one else suffering?

[rdnk]

What correction are you using? WAAS?

[Hopperbin]

noticed more drift today than any other day this
spring and also much less this spring than any
other year noticed a couple feet at the most
pass per pass but really rare i think no problem
. using outback

I am new to gps, bought a outback lite, works great north and south or at an angle, east and west looks like i drank a bottle of vodka before noon. Odd.

makar: no that is not unusual, satellites the way
they are positioned in the sky, give you more
accuracy traveling north and south. Mine locked
up a couple nights ago, do not know what the
hell happened. Dam near spun the tractor on a
90. Would not even disengage with foot switch.
rebooted and in four or five minutes picked up
satellites and worked fine again.

And the ag geeks dont understand why i dont spend 10000 on a gps on a 2500 tractor.

Subscribed to rtx this season for the seeder
tractor. Incredibly accurate. Well worth the
investment. Virtually zero drift even after 24
hours. Sub centimetre accuracy as advertised.

I almost grabbed mine and threw it out the door the other day. Was driving me nuts all spring. This was an S2. Finally got fed up and swapped it out with an old S and it's working great. What the hell gives?

highway is your antenae on the cab or front of
hood. how far is your tower reaching if using
one i want to upgrade for next year

Deere 2630 and 3000 receiver on SF1, no issues all spring, any angle any direction. Returns to the line next day. But it costs a lot more...
