Old wireless you had to wait for it to warm up to get any noise, then progressed to coming on as soon as you turned it on.
Now the one in the car has to initalise before it can play even a simple radio station. Progress it's called?

I wanted a simple FM radio for a tractor and was practically laughed out of Halfords... I left! My radio listening is essentially 5 FM stations incl one commercial for Herself, if she deigns to drive the tractor for me!!

disagree. Too much going on in one screen.
And getting them to talk to each other correctly . We had an issue with jd fighting kv screen , till kv man came and sorted it. , and it’s far better with two screens , than the excuse of just running it through one , So now got guidance on one , and big tell us looking after mapping and spreader ,
That’s because John Deere’s isobus is “Thier version of isobus” It conforms to the universal standard of Isobus where it has to as all manufacturers have to but as usual Deere like to be different they have so much proprietary content in their interpretation of isobus it makes it awkward to get some implements to work and ends up with implement manufacturers having to write software specific for J Deere to make it work. The whole purpose of isobus is a standard across the board platform that all tractors and manufacturers implements become plug and play unless you are John Deere .
It’s John Deers way of trying to tie everyone to their implements so going away from their tractors causes complications and encourages you stay with the brand rather than have the hassle .
