Radio Discussion Community

Its been very quiet on this forum for too long now. I know ive not been on, but neither has anyone else. There seems to be a bit of a resurgence with CBs among tractor men round us at the moment and as harvest is coming up wondered if anyone else in the area had a new set up or returned to the air ...

Cheers folks.

I've recently got a fendt 724 and decided that I am off to treat my self to a new set up rather than disturb the set up in my old tractor. Anyone out there got a set up in one of these that works very well? I am president CB through and through so that would be my first choice.
Cheers.

If theres a gap next to the radio it cant have electric mirrors, but there is still the wiring for them behind the radio in the cab harness. if you can find the loose plug ends, then stick a fuse in the gap for electric mirrors in the fuse box, bobs your uncle. Thats what mates of mine have done ...

a few of us who work in a simular area were goina try them. Not really sure what to do, but in the mean while my York 863 has gone to the doctors for a check up 8) ........ Any ideas on Ariels? Does anyone else run Fendts and manage to get a real good setup??????

Rite, i've decided to smash the piggy bank :shock: and get a brand new rig etc to go in my new work horse. Been doin a bit of reseach bout whats available at the mo and found out that Albrecht are making multi-band CBs. Quite fancing the AE 6890 for 2 reasons, it has remote a remote head feature ...

The auto lube pump on the baler you mean?

All seem quite in this section at the mo, but could do to pick some brains anyhow.
I've just got a Welger 435 Master round baler, with the all singing and dancing control box, but it seems to play havoc wit my Rig, like 5 - 7 pound of noise.
Any ideas????

Ive got a York 963 with a 5ft springer, on a ground plane mount on my Fendt 716. 8)

Just an idea, Have you tried moving your rig round the cab? i've had bother in the past with my old NH 8560, it use to do silly things with engine oil pressure and fuel gauges when i keyed up, and MF big square balers dump all the chamber pressure aswell, if you have the CB to near the computer ...

I went to Bishop Burton near Beverley, East Yorks. Did a ND in countryside Management, 1st year of a HND in that, then foot and mouth came along and put a stop to it :shock: . Then did ANC in Agricultural machinery management, then part time course to do my HNC. I went straight from school when i ...

Welcome back round baler. Havin being through the entire agric college system, i'd advise going back. i did a HNC and it was a good course but bloody hard work, thats only 3 years ago, best time off my life. 8)

if you want a good all-round tyre, i don't think you can beat BFG All terrain. There's cheaper ones about but you pay for what you get. i've got over-sized ones on my freelander, plus they look mint.

That looks like it dave, i ain't seen it but was talking to a lad on sat nite who'd been leading off it, he had some good pics on his phone. 50ft of grass at a go, 20 - 25 secs to fill a 12 ton trailer :shock: . Put the buckrake on the back. don't think i'd dare put it on the front. its a tad heavy ...

Ain't got a new one dave, shes a 2001 model . Them vario ferg's look quite good tho. ive been leading silage and buckraking for a few days now. Ive heard a rumour theres a prototype twin engined claas chopper in the area so iam off to try and track it down 2moro if i get chance. 8)
