Subject: GPS for no till drill.


SEON
I'm trying out a Great Plains 1510 drill but it doesn't have markers. If I was to buy this drill, how much $ will it cost to get set up with a GPS unit so I can work at night no tilling into wheat and hay stubble etc? I had a custom operator use GPS on his green tractor + 1590 drill last fall and I was really impressed (well right up until he lost the signal I was impressed). I figure with 2' of overlap on a 15' drill I'd be wasting $20/acre in wheat seed alone....not to mention labor, fuel and I had to shutdown at dark tonight and now it's raining.

If possible, I'd like to have the ability to use several different tractors (CIH 7120, 7110, MX150 etc....whichever one I can get my hands on when I need it).
