    Genuine parts prices. Where do you draw the line?

    Are you talking about the small ones in the bottom of each section valve?

    Genuine parts prices. Where do you draw the line?

    Reason for asking which O ring it was is that certain dealers that don't bother stocking parts will pay a minimum order charge on small items, they then stick a bit more on top.

    Out of curiosity, which O rings were they?

    Fendt Joystick

    Hi The buttons are available as a repair kit. As far as I know the only button you could use for the steering is the button on the valve joystick that is designed for a loader 3rd service, it activates a relay that powers a wire above the valve block where the loader pipes would go.

    Amazone sprayer distance control misbehaving

    If its a later sprayer the boom lock is monitored by a potentiometer so calibrating could correct this fault. Not sure what software you are running, non isobus? Also check the tilt sensors and tilt potentiometer. FM

    In the UK we have to have a license from Ofcom for 35W which isn't actually that expensive. It does however mean that hopefully there is not interference from other people using the same frequency. We are on 25khz band width which some people said was not needed but I felt it was possibly a bit...

    The smaller Satelline easy radio modem will work as a repeater as well as a receiver. It may only put out 1W but that may well be enough if placed correctly. I bought three about two months ago and they have gone up somewhat but I,m sure that they would be a lot less than the 35W radio. I always...

    All I did was drive around with a radio in the Land Rover watching the receive data lights, green good, red not good. Its worth researching power loss in coaxial cable if you use a long length.

    We have a 0.5W radio feeding the large 35W repeater. When close to our setup you pick up both radios, not an issue because they send the same signal half a second apart. It always amazes me just how far away we can pick up the 0.5W radio on high spots that are line of site.

    Some time since I set it up but it was fairly straight forward. The smaller (cheaper) Easy radio will work in repeater mode. It will not have the output of the larger radio but may be enough if placed high enough?

    I run a Satel like this one in repeater mode for our base station. The RTK receiver is not next to the mast. The signal is sent in pulses so can be repeated on the same frequency with no problems.

    Uk machinery dealers

    So why blame the dealers?

    Uk machinery dealers

    So is it the dealers fault that prices are cheaper abroad? Who is going to stock spares, do warranty work, and come out on a Sunday to fix it when it goes wrong? Not a dealer from Holland I suspect.
