Mine reads that way all the time. How does the sending unit work? I never even looked into getting it to work

A local fireman said "it's the first of march we should be shoveling snow not fighting brush fires" I won't say what fire he was fighting :wub:

Some odd farming for you inlanders. Who can guess this machines use?

Home made row flipper.
Some kind of harvester? Looks like the "tine arms" spin as the rotor rotates?

I don't know what it is, but it is parked next to an Audi. Seems like it must work with a cash crop. Cutting berrys off for winter/transplant?

It looks similar to what a cranberry guy would put together. I believe that they harvest them dry in your neck of the woods.

Bingo. Sort of. That is a cranberry caner. He drives along and the reel spins and snips off any extra cane. It grows like a mat on the ground. Then the HAND RAKE all 30 acres into these piles.......20150309_115459_zps5l1qwthl.jpg

They are now hand loading a trailer behind a Yanmar crawler and piling it up. Then he will bale them up with a old MF baler. Will get pics later when he starts. Then sells the canes to other farmers for new fields.

Bit far away but have to do. Here they are piling them up. Then he will hand fork them into a old Massey baler and make 2' long small bales. At normal length they weighed over 100# so he quickly asked Dad to show him how to adjust the knotter! He prob will work on that by Saturday so i will try to get some pics.
