What was John Deere 6R Ultimate Edition in 2017 ?

Yes, that’s what I do with my 4640 and previously my 2630 screens. However in the states the activations on those screens are on a subscription basis so you can pay monthly not only for a signal etc but also for the activation to use it.

IIRC there are various activation packages depending on how close you want to get in your tracking.
The monthly sub gets you to 2cm or under with autosteer so if you are drilling onions for example, you could take out a month's sub just for that.
Standard activation is good for 20cm accuracy ?? (or possibly greater - son would know but he's not around)

Yes that’s for the correction signal, we’re on about the activations to actually use the screen for things such as VR, section control etc. UK is a one off but state side is a subscription!

Australia is subscription for section control on a 4640. Between subs for rtk and section control I know a few people not very happy having the new screen over the 2630
