Doesn't the Raven send information back along the serial to tell the EZ guide its actual rate applied? If you go too fast, the Raven does read out its actual spread rate, and I'm pretty sure that information comes back to the EZ guide. It seems like monkeying with flow cal will throw off the output and make my resulting maps less useful at best.


Yes, I'm pretty sure you're right, the EZ guide will see the actual spread rate from the 660, and It will display that number on the screen. If you have the numbers fudged so that it's actually displaying tons per acre, the EZ guide will still have it labeled as pounds per acre. But regardless of the label, it's just a number, and you can make a note on your as-applied maps stating the correct units if you print them off.
