[AT] John Deere 4020 making strange noise

[Larry D. Goss]

I've had a similar experience while traveling across the country with a
faint beep-beep cropping up every once in a while.  I finally figured
out that the cell phone was telling me when it went in and out of
service areas.

It's hard to remember to turn the stupid thing off when I go into a
public meeting.  It is NOT cool to have a cell phone go off in the
middle of a funeral.  What was even more disgusting was when the lady (a
blonde, no less) answered the thing and proceeded to hold a conversation
in competition to the eulogies.

	I was disking yesterday with the 4020 loafing along and running
easy with my IHC 16' 
disk running about 4" deep at 6 MPH when I heard a faint but unfamiliar
sound. I 
instantly started listening carefully leaning first to one side then the
other in the 
opened up cab. I had taken the doors off and laid them in the truck
before I started. 
First the noise was there, then it wasn't... Then it was there, then it
wasn't... Over 
and over again... Then I said out loud DUH!!!!    I then pushed the
throttle all the way 
up, shoved the shifter up to "park" and climbed out of the cab. As I got
about 20' from 
the tractor I took my dang silly cell phone out of its case and answered
it...  :-)   :-) 
  :-)
	In my defense it has been a very long week...
