Subject: RE: Reliability/Accuracy of yield monitors in S-series JD combines



Dalton, OH
We've been running Ag Leader yield monitors for a few year, but decided to use the 2630 when we switched to out new s660 this past season. We mostly decided to switch since we knew JD was using Ag Leader parts. One thing we found out is that while there software is similar it is not the same. One big thing that was missing, maybe they changed in a recent update, was the ability to make the calibrations retroactive. That is such an important feature in my mind.One issue that you point out and we saw first-hand is our combine's calibration not holding. We would calibrate it and it would work good all day long. Next day we would start out and it would be low 20% the whole day, next day it would be high 20%, and then one day it would be right back in calibration. We tried multiple things and never did have any luck with it. On our larger fields that we ran in multiple days it kind of makes the yield maps useless. I'm going to look into the elevator clearance that you mentioned. Thanks
