Hicksy Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Hi Jon thank you for your kind comments, upto this June in fact still use my old faithful little sony diggy camera, had a new camera for my birthday back in June and now have a samsung galaxy , really like great screen really good for taking and viewing photos, got wifi, so I van down load straight off the camera to photo bucket and Instagram , near bought the 3G version but didn't think it was worth the extra £100 , thought my forum friends wouldn't mind wait a bit for my pictures , great zoom on it too the only thing for me that cheesed me off like a prat I thought I could wifi or Bluetooth photos over to my iPad air , but no although it does send them over to my tv very well and no cables , getting back to tractors I think our dealer has 4 or 5 9 series crawlers out there , may be more now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Ta for info Phil - i ve just got the Canon A4000 IS did have a bigger firm cam but the cost of prints was a little too much , only trouble i found is that i do seem to get a little bit of dust in the camera after getting far too close to the back of combines ha ha! but not ! - there a good set of different sized JD tracktors about me but the tracked ones are a little like hens teeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi ol, we use sf1 the free service and have been using it for years now and find accurate even for drilling, the last receiver is far better than the original one like I have on my crawler , as it picks up more than twice the amount of satellites , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hicksy Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 New tractor came yesterday, the new command arm and screen are really nice , looking forward to using it. The led light package is very smart, it gives out a pure white light , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hicksy Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Another week goes by, I have been on my crawler today the first time for two weeks as the land has been covered in straw or bales or not even harvested, well the wheat was finnished last night , the baler man is catching up well but there are still a lot of bales about, These pictures are helping the chap who helps us with his 7530 , this straw is for his livery, I'm on his loader, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hicksy Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 The baler mans outfit Think our new tractor looks better now I have fitted the front weight block, This is very embarrassing , I've have had the new tractor on the hay bob for three days, funny thing is I have a friend who drives a truck all over the country and said today that he has seen a lot of big tractors about with tiny tedders on the back, The chap with the livery had this 6220r on demo .
