Mike M, you are indeed correct, that is some fantastic video. I enjoyed every bit of it and smile at the wonderment of some ole farm boy in Saskatchewan putting it together. Ralph, you amaze me with your expertise.

Mike, its funny I have had a lot of comments on how well I was following 
the line. I never gave it much 
thought as I have done it so long that I don't even think about where 
to drive. I guess it is years of experience 
that does it. I do have a Trimble GPS system that I bought for use when 
spraying. It can be very hard to tell 
where to position the end of the 60 foot booms when there is not even a 
mark on the ground from the last pass. 
The screen shows me exactly what it done and what is not. I have on 
occasion used it for seeding when soil 
conditions are such that there is almost no change in colour between 
seeded and not seeded ground. 
In this video as you can see, there was no problem seeing what was 
worked and what not. 

Ralph in Sask.
